Trigger Warning is written by John Brancato, Josh Olson and Halley Gross and directed by Mouly Surya.

The film marks a return to the action genre for Alba, who previously starred in Machete and the series Dark Angel. She and Trigger Warning team incorporated Indonesian knife fighting into the choreography.

"I haven't really done hand-to-hand combat and intense action in such a long time," the actress told Netflix's Tudum.

"For me, I really wanted it to be a more intimate kind of fighting experience if I needed to take somebody out," she added.

Trigger Warning premieres June 21.
