Red Sparrow is a spy thriller movie that narrates the story of a Russian intelligence officer played by Jennifer, who is sent to get in touch with a CIA agent and also a ‘mole’.

Though the film garnered mixed reviews and was said to have more of ‘style rather than substance’ in it, Jennifer’s acting skills have been applauded.

Below are some new fascinating facts related to this film:

This film is adapted from a 2013 novel of the same name which has been written by retired CIA Agent Jason Matthews. It is reported that even before Matthews had finished writing the novel, he had sold its rights to a production house for a seven-figure amount of money. Matthews is also a technical consultant on this film. This book is the first in a trilogy series. The other two books are Palace of Treason and The Kremlin’s candidate.

There are no sequels yet planned for this film though it is highly suspected that there might be.
The film locations were Budapest, Hungary, Vienna, as well at Heathrow airport.
Jennifer Lawrence has talked about her nude scenes in the film. She said that it was a challenging role that helped her shed her insecurities. She said:

“The insecurity and fear of being judged for getting nude, what I went through, should that dictate decisions I make for the rest of my life? This movie changed that and I didn’t even realize how important changing that mentality was until it was done,”
