“The Front Room” Trailer – Brandy Returns to Horror in A24 Film

John Woothe 1989 action thriller The killer is getting a “reimagining” from Woo himself, and IGN reveals this afternoon that the all-new film is coming to Peacock August 23.

Additionally, IGN shared some images from the film. Check Nathalie Emmanuel (The invitation) And Omar Sy (Jurassic world) in the photo above and find out more on IGN.

IGN details: “Nathalie Emmanuel (stars) as Zee, a mysterious and infamous assassin known and feared in the Parisian underworld as the Queen of the Dead.

“But when, during a mission from his dark mentor and handler Finn (Sam Worthington), Zee refuses to kill a blinded young woman, Jenn (Diana Silvers), at a Parisian nightclub, the decision will disintegrate Zee’s alliances, attract the attention of savvy police investigator Sy (Omar Sy) and plunge her into a sinister criminal conspiracy that will set her on a collision course with its own past.

Action auteur John Woo returns to reimagine and redirect his own classic with the all-new film, written by Matthew Stuecken And Josh Campbell (10 Cloverfield Lane), as well as Eran Creevy (Welcome to Punch, Collide) And Brian Helgeland (42, Legend).

Written and directed by John Woo, the original The killer starred Chow Yun-Fat as Ah Jong, “a disillusioned assassin who accepts one last hit in hopes of using his winnings to restore sight to a singer he accidentally blinded.”

A remake of The killer starring Lupita Nyong’o was recently announced, but Woo had updated in 2019 that Nyong’o was out of the project and the script was being reworked.
