John Abraham dropped the trailer of Attack, his upcoming action film, on Tuesday and it seems heavily inspired by Captain America and Iron Man from the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Bollywood movie stars John as a super-soldier with an advanced AI system, much like Tony Stark’s J.A.R.V.I.S. The trailer starts with an AI guiding assessing the damage caused by John after he gets into a fight. Sensing that the police were on their way, John reaches the building’s rooftop and assesses his escape when the AI suggests he jumps. Hesitant, he ends up following the orders.
As the trailer pans out, it is revealed that John is a human subject to a scientific project. Rakul Preet Singh walks in, playing the role of a scientist, who gives his character an upgrade. The experimental super-soldier is then tasked with saving those held hostages at what appears to be the Indian Parliament.
