The Producers Trent Luckinbill and Molly Smith and Benicio Del Toro were present today at the Sony Pictures Entertainment CinemaCon Presentation at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace April 23 2018 for the incoming movie Sicario, Day of the Soldado

In SICARIO, Day of the Soldado, the series begins a new chapter. In the drug war, there are no rules – and as the cartels have begun trafficking terrorists across the US border, federal agent Matt Graver (Josh Brolin) calls on the mysterious Alejandro (Benicio Del Toro), whose family was murdered by a cartel kingpin, to escalate the war in nefarious ways. Alejandro kidnaps the kingpin’s daughter to inflame the conflict – but when the girl is seen as collateral damage, her fate will come between the two men as they question everything they are fighting for.

Synopsis :
After discovering that Mexican drug cartels are smuggling jihadi terrorists across the U.S. border, the CIA sends Matt Graver (Josh Brolin) and former undercover operative Alejandro Gillick (Benicio del Toro) to eliminate the problem. They kidnap Isabela Reyes (Isabela Moner), the daughter of a drug lord, in a false flag operation designed to incite war between rival cartels. The mission goes awry when it is discovered by the Mexican government, prompting Graver to order Reyes' execution; when Gillick refuses, he turns rogue to protect her as Graver assembles a new team to hunt them both.
