Academy Award-nominated director Richard Linklater's glossy neo-noir stars Glen Powell as straitlaced professor Gary Johnson, a moonlighting hitman for the New Orleans Police Department. Gary has an uncanny talent for posing as different people to catch hapless souls hoping to fend off their enemies. He's thrown into a moral dilemma when he becomes attracted to a potential criminal: a beautiful young woman named Madison (Adria Arjona). When Madison falls for one of Gary's hitman characters (the mysterious and sexy Ron), their affair sets off a chain reaction of playacting, deception, and escalating stakes. Co-written by Linklater and Powell and based on an incredible true story, Hit Man is a clever existential comedy about identity.
