Here’s the official synopsis.
Susan Cooper (Melissa McCarthy) is an unassuming, deskbound 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 (Jason Statham) is compromised, she volunteers to go deep undercover to infiltrateย the world of a deadly arms dealer, and prevent a global disaster.
After Spy, Feig will move on to the highly anticipated Ghostbusters remake, which will feature a new team of all-female Ghostbusters in a rebooted universe. Melissa McCarthy, Feig’s consistent acting partner, is rumored to be in contention for a starring role, should her schedule allow it.
Spy hits theaters on May 22.
