Written and directed by Guy Ritchie, ‘In the Grey’ stars Pike, Henry Cavill, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Eiza González.

In the Netflix movie ‘Ladies First,’ Rosamund Pike faces Sacha Baron Cohen, who plays a womanizer who gets a harsh wake-up call when he finds himself in a parallel world dominated by women, and a fiery female counterpart (Pike), more like a female version of himself, makes things a lot complicated.

The rom-com is an adaptation of Eléonore Pourriat’s French film ‘Je Ne Suis Pas Un Homme Facile.’ The cast also includes Richard E.
