The Amateur brings elements to the action-spy genre rarely seen. An emotional, grounded reality filled with violence and consequence, director James Hawes coaxes an exceptional performance from lead and co-producer Rami Malek. Rounding out the cast are two complete ringers, Rachel Brosnahan (Superman) and Outlander's Caitríona Balfe.

Brosnahan plays Sarah Horowitz, the love of Charlie Heller’s (Malek) life, who tragically loses her life in a terrorist attack in London. Heller, a CIA cryptographer, must stop at nothing to hunt down his wife’s killers, including fighting against his own agency. Balfe plays one of Heller’s close allies, a solitary hacker named Inquiline Davies. The film also stars Laurence Fishburne (The Witcher) and Michael Stuhlbarg (After The Hunt).

Collider’s own Steve Weintraub had the pleasure of sitting down with Brosnahan and Balfe to talk about The Amateur. In this interview, they discuss what drew them to the project and how they prepared for their respective characters, as well as teasing the end of the massively popular Outlander series and James Gunn's Superman.
