Peacock has released the first trailer for the director John Woo‘s reinterpretation of his classic 1989 action thriller The killer. The movie stars Nathalie Emmanuelwho follows in the footsteps of Chow Yun-Fat’s assassin.

Peacock describes the film as follows: “From the Oscar-winning producer of OppenheimerThe fast-paced action thriller stars Emmy-nominated Nathalie Emmanuel (The fast saga, game of Thrones) as Zee, a mysterious and notorious assassin known and feared in the Parisian underworld as the “Queen of the Dead”.

If you watch the trailer, you’ll notice that this is a John Woo style film. It has all those thrilling Woo style action scenes.

I loved the original film, which is a great all-time classic, and I’m not sure why Woo wanted to reimagine it. This one doesn’t look like a better film, but I’m sure it will provide entertainment.

The cast of the film includes famous French actors Eric Cantona (The fragile colossus, Elizabeth), Saïd Taghmaoui (Wonder Woman, Kite Runner), Cheky Karyo (Nikita, A very long engagement) And Gregory Montel (Call my agent!, Thirst for life), Angeles Woo (Silent Night, Manhunt) And Aurélia Agel (Halo, Black Widow).

The killer will be released on Peacock on August 23rd.
