Universal has announced that Lupin star Omar Sy will star in the lead role of Peacock’s The Killer, a re-imagining of the 1989 John Woo film from Woo himself.
The Killer re-imagining is one of three films that Woo is set to direct as part of a series of three Universal original films that the studio is set to deliver.
Recently, Sy starred in 2022’s Jurassic World Dominion, as well as the French action comedy film The Takedown.
The film acted as one of the catalysts to Woo exploding onto the Hollywood scene.
