Glen Powell and Adria Arjona star in the sizzling fake-assassin noir comedy from Richard Linklater.
The killer is fake, but the romance is real. Netflix released a new trailer for Hit Man, the upcoming noir comedy from director and co-writer Richard Linklater that's based on a true story. Streaming June 7, Hit Man stars Glen Powell as Gary Johnson, a mild-mannered college professor who moonlights as a fake contract killer for the police — a slick-haired hitman named Ron.
Powell co-wrote the movie reuniting him with his Everbody Wants Some!! director Linklater, basing their screenplay on the 2001 Texas Monthly article by Skip Hollandsworth . Watch the Hit Man trailer below. Alongside Powell and Arjona, the cast includes Austin Amelio , Retta , Sanjay Rao , Molly Bernard , and Evan Holtzman .
"Ultimately, it's a relationship movie," Linklater told Netflix, adding it's a romantic comedy as much as it is a crime thriller."I think that's an attribute of the movie — it's about a lot of things. It's about identity and self and passion. But on a plot level, it's just a guy who gets in a little too deep. His passions lead him in a direction where he's deceiving someone he's in love with, and being someone else.
