Amblin Entertainment has acquired the feature film rights for the upcoming hitman novel Assassins Anonymous, which was written by Rob Hart. Apparently, there’s a lot of hype surrounding this book, which is set to be published in 2024.

In the story, “the world’s deadliest hitman has left his violent life behind and joined a clandestine 12-step support group for reformed assassins. But when he is attacked by a mysterious assailant, he must risk everything to find out who’s after him and why—and he must survive without breaking his pledge never to kill again.”

The novel is said to “blend the pulse-pounding action of John Wick with the humor and humanity of Barry.” This sounds like it could be a really good and successful movie depending on the creative talent that’s brought on board to develop it.

Hart will serve as a producer on the movie, and the project will be overseen at Amblin by Lauren Abrahams.
