Glen Powell Shapeshifts for Richard Linklater’s Comedy, Arriving in June

Coming off the large hit Leading Weapon: Radical and showing the rom-com still has legs with Anybody However You, Glen Powell’s following function locates him rejoining with Richard Linklater for Hitman, which they co-wrote. A significant preferred at Venice, TIFF, and NYFF, the movie is currently coming by Sundance, and in advance of a June 7 launch from Netflix the very first trailer has actually shown up.

Below’s the summary: “From Academy Award-nominated writer/director Richard Linklater, co-written and starring Glen Powell alongside Adria Arjona, comes Hit Man. Inspired by an unbelievable true story, a hit man meets his match in a client who steals his heart and ignites a powder keg of deception, delight, and mixed-up identities.”

Luke Hicks stated in his Venice testimonial, “When it comes to genre, Hit Man lands firmly in School of Rock territory. It doesn’t hit the bullseye quite like the Jack Black rock comedy––that’s a microscopically small target, not the expectation––but has the mood and tone of a tastefully executed studio comedy, this time made outside a studio.”

See the trailer listed below.

Hitman shows up on Netflix on June 7.
