Viola Davis plays a commander in chief who will do what it takes to save the day in a new movie from the Amazon MGM Studios action movie G20. G20 centers on President Taylor Sutton (Davis), who must fight for the well-being of her family and other world leaders when terrorists take control of the G20 summit in Cape Town, South Africa. “This is Viola Davis as you’ve never seen her — heroically kicking tons of butt in a global thrill ride, Viola says with G20, I wanted to make the kind of classic, edge-of-your-seat action film that I’ve always been such a fan of, but one that draws on the high stakes of our modern and technologically advanced world we live in.” This will begin streaming on April 10 on Prime.
