Based on a 1997 novel (which sat in development hell for decades), the story follows professional hitman Duncan (Dave Bautista). After being diagnosed with a terminal illness, he puts a hit out on himself to spare his loved ones the pain. Naturally, the diagnosis is wrong. Now, he has to survive the onslaught of every assassin in the world coming to collect the bounty.

J.J. Perry knows stunt work. Having coordinated fights for John Wick and Nobody , he brings that same kinetic energy here. The Killer’s Game doesn't take itself seriously.
