While some of the footage has been seen in the previously released trailers and TV spots, the first clip from Lucy showcases an entire sequence where Scarlett Johansson uses her new skills to escape captivity. The title character first puts on a seductive display for an unwitting guard, before unleashing an impressive display of power and marksmanship.

Even when she gets shot, Lucy can pull the bullet out with her bare hands. Watch as Lucy uses her brains and her brawn to take out a number of enemies in the latest footage from director Luc Besson's action-thriller, in theaters July 25.

From La Femme Nikita and The Professional to The Fifth Element, writer/director Luc Besson has created some of the toughest, most memorable female action heroes in cinematic history. Now, Besson directs Scarlett Johansson in Lucy, an action-thriller that tracks a woman accidentally caught in a dark deal who turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic.
