    Based on the Red Sparrow Trilogy books by Jason Matthews
, Lawrence plays Dominika Egorova, a former ballerina who suffers a career-ending injury.

    Stripped of her former future, Dominika is recruited by Sparrow School, a top-secret intelligence service that trains young people to weaponize both their bodies and minds.
