Yes David, if you look @ her filmography and the performances she delivered in some of those flicks, with her captivating and beautiful presence, plus her true talent as an actress, she is with the force. :b

That one...'Atomic Blonde' is an action flick, with exaggerated "very fast" violence and humor, from the same director who did 'John Wick'.
It is a stylized flick with an attractive heroine fighting the villains.

David Leitch ? Same director for both 'John Wick' and 'Atomic Blonde'

* Bonus: John Wick: Chapter 2


So yes, all the connecting dots between 'Atomic Blonde' and 'John Wick' are perfectly in place, from the same movie director and its recipe @ the movies:
Super fast action (body moves, gun shooting, driving, ...) with accompanying music, splashes of red blood, overboard dead serious humor;
tra-la-la the stuff jazz that works @ the movies with the movie audience and movie critics (just check Rotten Tomatoes and the Meta Critic's average).

'Avatar' it's not, 'Iron Man' it's not either; it is 'Atomic Blonde' with Charlize from 'Mad Max: Fury Road'.
It is 'John Wick' with Keanu from 'The Matrix' trilogy.
Two complementary accomplices from the same film director.

On 'John Wick' from wiki:

"John Wick is a 2014 American neo-noir action thriller film directed by Chad Stahelski and David Leitch and starring Keanu Reeves...
Stahelski and Leitch directed the film together, though Leitch was uncredited.

The film was written by Derek Kolstad, who completed the screenplay in 2012 and further developed it for Thunder Road Pictures. The film was produced by Basil Iwanyk of Thunder Road Pictures, Leitch, Eva Longoria, and Michael Witherill. It marks Stahelski and Leitch's directorial debut as a team after multiple separate credits as second unit directors and stunt coordinators. They previously worked with Reeves as stunt doubles on The Matrix trilogy.

Stahelski and Leitch's approach to action scenes drew upon their admiration for anime and martial arts films, and the film's use of fight choreographers and gun fu techniques from Hong Kong action cinema was additionally influential in the development of the film. The film also pays homage to works such as John Woo's The Killer, Jean-Pierre Melville's Le Cercle Rouge and Le Samouraï, John Boorman's Point Blank, and the spaghetti western subgenre of Western films. On its release, the film received positive reviews from critics, who praised the performances, visuals and action sequences, and grossed $88 million worldwide. A sequel, John Wick: Chapter 2, was released in February 2017."
