A trailer has gone online for iconic genre writer/director Walter Hill’s (Warriors, 48 Hours) bold new tranny thriller The Assignment, starring Michelle Rodriguez as a merciless male assassin on a revenge mission against the surgeon who performed gender reassignment surgery on him.

Why he’d leave the house and not stay in with an assortment of phallic looking fruit and a mirror is baffling to us, but hot lesbian action is hinted at in the trailer so maybe all makes sense anyway.

Regardless, in Hill’s hands we’re in for an outrageous, fun ride – the dude’s  creds include The Warriors, 48 Hours, Another 48 Hours, Red Heat, Last Man Standing, Wild Bill, Bullet to the Head, and the highly underrated Cross Roads with Ralph Macchio taking on Steve Vai on guitar in hell!

The Assignment probably won’t make it to theaters in today’s ridiculously backwards, politically-correct climate – critics are already slamming it through tear-filled eyes – so here’s hoping we can at least see it on VOD.

Peep it:
