One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
Emma has a wonderful husband and two kids in the suburbs of New Jersey – she also has a secret life as an assassin for hire – a secret that her husband David discovers when the couple decide to spice up their marriage with a little role play.
"How many movies already exist about spies or hitmen leading a double life (and how many of those haven't been starred by Liam Neeson)? From Mark Wahlberg in The Family Plan to Bob Odenkirk in Nobody, and of course, the classic Mr. & Mrs. Smith, to mention recent and well-known examples. 'Role Play' has the distinction of flipping the roles. Here, the retired assassin is Emma (Kaley Cuoco, from The Big Bang Theory), whose perfect family life crumbles when her husband's (David Oyelowo, Selma) true identity is revealed. Beyond that, it's a generic movie: there are deceits, fights, chases, and a bit of humor, the same elements found in other films. But if that's what you enjoy, you'll likely find it entertaining."
