Triple Frontier trailer: Ben Affleck is seen as a determined team leader in JC Chandor's action film

Netflix recently released the trailer of Triple Frontier. The action drama, featuring Ben Affleck, revolves around a group of former Special Forces men who are led by Affleck. Their mission is to rob the world’s deadliest drug cartel, which is housed in the ’triple fontier’ border between Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil.

Triple Frontier was to originally be helmed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by Mark Boal for Paramount. This came right after the Oscar-winning feature The Hurt Locker in 2008. Stars like Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp, Will Smith, Leonardo DiCaprio, Channing Tatum, Tom Hardy and Mahershala Ali had all apparently shown interest in the project at one juncture or the other. Triple Frontier is expected to premiere on Netflix and in select theatres in March, 2019. Watch the trailer here.
