Action legend John Woo is set to direct an English-language remake of his own TheKiller for Peacock! 👀🙌

John Woo is set to direct an English remake of his own film, The Killer. Woo's career began with 1970s Hong Kong action films. He started to garner attention from American audiences in the 1980s, with movies like A Better Tomorrow and The Killer. Audiences are likely familiar with Woo's American action movies, including Broken Arrow, Face/Off, and Mission: Impossible II. Now, he is set to revisit The Killer with an English language remake.

In a press release from Peacock, it was announced that "celebrated action auteur John Woo returns to reimagine and direct his own classic, The Killer." The original 1989 film, starring Chow Yun-Fat, Sally Yeh, and Danny Lee, follows an assassin who accidentally blinds a nightclub singer, prompting him to take another job, killing a high-level triad boss, to pay for a procedure that will restore the singer's sight.
