First look at her latest role

Jessica Alba In Machete Poster

She's been busy for a little while now, off having a baby and dressing up as Dora the Explorer for Halloween, but Jessica Alba is back back back in Machete - and this first poster that Coming Soon found gives us a clue to her look in the film.

In the film she plays a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agent on the trail of Danny Trejo's Machete, the rogue Federale agent whois on the run after being double-crossed when asked to assassinate a corrupt Senator (Robert De Niro). Also in there are Cheech Marin as a priest, Steven Seagal as a drug-dealer and Michelle Rodriguez as a "saucy taco slinger".

 The film's currently at the American Film Market, so with luck there'll be more word on a distributor and release date shortly.

Not sure
either, isn't this a movie that was based on a trailer, that was a joke? I saw Grindhouse in it's original format and it was a bit of an effort to sit though it all, on the other hand that is a great cast... ... Read More

RE:
Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. Looks and sounds like trash. I like Jessica Alba, she's pretty inoffensive and made a terrible dance film likable with her saccharine 'Honey' character and she wasn't too bad in Sin City... she just picks terrible films! Poor girl, someone should tell her that this is not the film that will stop her being typecast as the sweet young female because quite frankly, I don't think anyone will go to see this. ... Read More
