Hey Sam, this is really solid! I think you're just missing a single word or phrase in here, a descriptor for your protagonist that gives us the flaw and sets up the journey or want. Like if it's "returning home from an unpopular war disgraced" or "an ex-super-soldier seeking redemption for their war crimes." Whatever it may be, just plug that in there and you've got a great logline :)

If the hero looks like the image in the poster then I would describe her as such in the logline as this is a very unique version of a super soldier and will lend a USP to the logline furthermore than without.
