Steven Soderbergh's 'Haywire' Trailer: Watch This Lady Beat the Shit Out of Michael Fassbender

Steven Soderbergh's long talked-about retirement plans may or may not be happening, but if he does decide to stop making films, at least he can go out knowing he's worked with pretty much every working actor Hollywood has. The Ocean's series and the recent, surprisingly-large cast of Contagion covered a lot of ground on that front, and now the director's newest, Haywire, adds to that credits with Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas, Channing Tatum, Michael Angarano, and Bill Paxton. None of them are the stars of this film, though. The star of this film is Gina Carano, a mixed martial arts fighter referred to as "The Face of Women's MMA," due to her being the MMA fighter you'd feel most comfortable masturbating to. She plays the classic action archetype of a highly-trained special op out for revenge against those who double-crossed her, and she seriously makes Angelina Jolie look like a jerk for even trying to do this kind of thing.
