Does the plot of "Relay" sound interesting to you? It certainly does to me, and the trailer is simply outstanding.

Give it a watch below, and let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.

This movie looks like it's going to be a fascinating ride. I'm also intrigued because Riz Ahmed plays a major role.

For those of you who might not know, he led the way in "The Night Of" on HBO back in 2016. That series was absolutely incredible and also very dark. It's a shame it doesn't get more recognition when we look back on great TV series.

Now, he's joining Sam Worthington and Lily James in a film about a woman on the run being hunted by elite forces.

Sold.

You don't have to say anything else to grab my interest. Sounds like my perfect kind of movie.
