French filmmaker Olivier Assayas is about to get his biggest global audience yet with the Netflix premiere of his new movie “Wasp Network” coming to the platform on June 19. Based on the true story of five Cuban spies held as political prisoners from the late 1990s up until 2014, the movie stars Penélope Cruz, Edgar Ramirez, and Gael García Bernal. Watch the first trailer for “Wasp Network” below.
