An introduction to gadgets in new Spy clip

As every good spy (and even the not-so-good ones) knows gadgets are one of the most important weapons they can have in their arsenal. Whether it’s a camera disguised as a button, a pack of cigarettes that is actually a bomb, or a car that turns into a submarine, the best gadgets come in a different guise, something that doesn’t draw attention at first sight. This is something Melissa McCarthy must learn in this new clip from Spy, before she undertakes the all-important first mission.

Synopsis – Susan Cooper is an unassuming, desk bound CIA analyst, and the unsung hero behind the Agency’s most dangerous missions. But when her partner (Jude Law) falls off the grid and another top agent  is compromised, she volunteers to go deep undercover to infiltrate the world of a deadly arms dealer, and prevent a global disaster.

The winning team of director Paul Feig and star Melissa McCarthy (who have previously worked together on Bridesmaids and The Heat, and of course are now working on the upcoming Ghostbusters film) has already garnered some favourable reviews for Spy, after it premiered at this year’s SXSW festival in Texas.

Joining McCarthy, Law, and Statham are Allison Janney, Rose Byrne, and bizarrely, Miranda Hart. Spy is released in UK cinemas on 5th June, and you can enjoy the latest trailer for the film below.
