The Killer

 is a film directed by David Fincher. It is an adaptation of the Alexis Nolent’s The Killer graphic novel series. Fincher is re-teaming with screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker, who will adapt.

While unconfirmed, sources also say Michael Fassbender is in talks to star in the pic. Netflix would not comment on Fassbender’s involvement. Ceán Chaffin will serve as producer.

Summary
"The series followed a cold-blooded assassin who begins to have psychological crisis in a world with no moral compass. It is still unknown how Fincher and Walker would tackle this adaptation but the stylistic noir themes that run throughout the series seem like a perfect project to reunite the two 25 years after their own classic noir tale premiered."

- Official Netflix synopsis

"After a fateful near miss, an assassin battles his employers — and himself — on an international hunt for retribution he insists isn't personal."
