"Stick to your plan. Trust no-one. Forbid empathy. Anticipate, don’t improvise."

Netflix has released a stylish first trailer for The Killer, David Fincher's (Seven, Zodiac) adaptation of the French graphic novel of the same name from writer Alexis Nolent and artist by Luc Jacamon.

Michael Fassbender (X-Men: Days of Future Past, Shame) stars as the unnamed assassin of the title, who becomes embroiled in an international manhunt after a hit goes wrong.

Charles Parnell, Tilda Swinton, Arliss Howard and Sophie Charlotte also star.

The Killer will have its world premiere at this year’s Venice International Film Festival, before hitting the big screen for a limited theatrical release on October 27, 2023. The movie will then debut on Netflix on November 10, 2023.

Check out the trailer below along with a new poster, and let us know what you think in the comments section.

"Solitary, cold, methodical and unencumbered by scruples or regrets, a killer waits in the shadows, watching for his next target. Yet, the longer he waits, the more he thinks he's losing his mind, if not his cool."

@MotherGooseUPus - im just so tired of trailers that ruin the movie (or even parts)… this teaser has so many cool moments and yet I still have no idea how to add any of it up, or guess the sequence of events… job well done imo

@MotherGooseUPus - I thought it was a weird trailer too, but still got me hyped for the movie so it did its job. Im more excited for the talent involved than what was shown though. Also, that poster is rad.

@MotherGooseUPus - the voiceover was kind of awkward and it had weird editing. The graphics toward the end seemed goofy too. Odd trailer. Hope the movie is good

"On a scale from 1-10, how much is this going to look like a David Fincher movie?"

David Fincher: "Yes"

Just what weve been missing this year. A good ol' Fincher thriller.

Can't even count the amount of times ive rewatched Fight club and Gone girl recently.

Michael Fassbender AND David Fincher? Sign me up. Great actor and great director.

Not crazy about the trailer (at least the first half), but a new David Fincher film is all the intriguing promise I need! Throw in some Fassbender too...

Any upcoming David Fincher movie is a must see for me. I'm still not over the fact that we could've got a WW Z sequel directed by him.

Michael Fassbender



I was curious as to why I haven't seen him in a while. I feel like he was popping up in all of the big movies years ago, and then he kinda disappeared. Dark Phoenix was his last film 4 years ago. Before that he was in films every year. Now he has like 8 upcoming films.

Either way I'm super excited for this. Fincher is the man.
