What’s the story of ‘The Killer’s Game’?
The new action comedy kicks off when top hitman Joe Flood (Bautista) is diagnosed with a terminal illness, and he decides to take matters into his own hands –– by taking a hit out on himself.
But when he both learns he was misdiagnosed and the very hitmen he hired also target his ex–girlfriend (Boutella), he must fend off an army of assassin colleagues and win back the love of his life before it’s too late.

Dave Bautista talks ‘The Killer’s Game’ and his co-star
Bautista was recently asked about the choice of Boutella as Maize by The Hollywood Reporter.
This is what he had to say:
“They brought forth other actresses, and I just kept turning them down, saying, ‘No, I just can’t wrap my head around anybody else other than Sofia,’ ”So then I said, ‘Let’s not look for another actress. Let’s just try to move schedules around so we can make Sofia work.’ It took a lot of doing from producers and agents and managers, and Sofia being willing to fly back and forth from Budapest to London while she was on two projects.”
When will ‘The Killer’s Game’ be in theaters?
You’ll be able to catch all the action when ‘The Killer’s Game’ arrives in theaters on Friday, September 13th.
