Jessica Alba “Machete” Poster
A new poster for Ethan Maniquis and Robert Rodriguez’s “Machete” is currently on display at the American Film Market (AFM), and it features a look at Jessica Alba as Sartana. Check it out below.
“Machete” is based on the “fake” trailer in Rodriguez’s 2007 Grindhouse. The highly skilled Federale Machete (Danny Trejo) is hired by some unsavory types to assassinate a senator. But just as he’s about to take the shot, he notices someone aiming at him and realizes he’s been set up. He barely survives the sniper’s bullet, and is soon out for revenge on his former employers, with the reluctant assistance of his old friend Cheech Marin, who has become a priest and taken a vow of nonviolence. If you hire him to take out the bad guys, make sure the bad guys aren’t you!
