While Paradise Highway is dealing with some dark material, the previously released trailer suggests that there is some light at the end of the tunnel. After all, Bincho's Sally is a cold-hearted kidnapper and does not wish to bring harm to Leila. Whether she and her charge will be rescued by Finley and Gerick, or start to turn the tide on their own, will be seen on July 29. Paradise Highway also stars Frank Grillo (Captain America: The Winter Soldier), Veronica Ferres (Zero Contact), and Christiane Seidel (The Queen’s Gambit).
