Keira Knightley holds a gun and points it.

Keira Knightley is typically known for her dramatic work in dramas like Pride & Prejudice, Atonement, and The Imitation Game. This December, Knightley transforms into an elite spy and flaunts her inner action hero in Netflix’s new series Black Doves, which unveiled its first trailer on Wednesday.

It’s Christmastime in London, and Helen Webb (Knightley) continues to hide her secret life as a professional spy from her husband and kids. Helen works for the mysterious espionage organization known as the Black Doves. After her secret lover Jason (Andrew Koji) is killed, Helen embarks on a revenge-fueled mission to identify the murderer.

Reed (Sarah Lancashire), Helen’s handler at Black Doves, recruits an old friend, Sam Young (Passages star Ben Whishaw), to watch over Helen and keep her safe. It won’t be easy, considering Helen will shoot, fight, and kill to get answers for Jason’s death.

Sam says, “I was sent here to keep you alive, not drag you into a series of escalating gunfights,” to which Helen responds: “If you try and stop me, I will kill you myself.”
