Kate Beckinsale's latest movie Canary Black

Avery Graves is a skilled CIA agent. When her husband David is taken hostage by a cruel terrorist group led by Konrad Breznov, her whole world turns upside down. The kidnappers want Avery to steal the highly secret Canary Black file, which is a digital weapon that could destroy the world's infrastructure and cause a lot of damage.

But Avery doesn't know that the file is much more dangerous than she thought and that it will have bigger effects than she thought.

As Avery is bound to run against the clock, she finds out some shocking facts, including her husband's scary secret. David is not a victim; he is being possessed by an assassin named Kali, who planned his own kidnapping to trick Avery into giving him the file.

Avery's professional crisis takes on a more personal tone when David mentions that he wants to sell the virus to settle a debt with a Russian mob. Avery has to find her way through a maze of lies because she loves David and feels she has to stop a global disaster.

At the end of the movie, Avery confronts the terrorist leader at Breznov's headquarters. The virus is about to cause chaos at a Global Unification Summit, but Avery beats Breznov and turns off the virus, which saves the world. But it has taken a huge toll on her emotions, making her question her trust and loyalty.

Kate Beckinsale's career

Holywood actress Kate Beckinsale was born in London on July 26, 1973. As the daughter of actors Richard Beckinsale and Judy Loe, Kate grew up fully submerged in the entertainment business.

In the early 1990s, she began her acting career while simultaneously pursuing her studies at the University of Oxford. Her early work in British period dramas, including Cold Comfort Farm and Emma, highlighted her natural ability for sophisticated characters.

Her career took a positive turn after her Hollywood breakthrough in Pearl Harbor (2001) and Serendipity (2001), both of which brought her global recognition.

However, her performance as Selene, the vampire warrior from the Underworld series (2003–present), set her as a top action star. Her range grew as she starred in films including Love & Friendship (2016), Van Helsing ( 2004), and Snow Angels (2007).
