Lionsgate Finds Its Next ‘John Wick’ in Unexpected Indian Action Thriller ‘Kill’

Hindi-language thriller 'Kill' sparks international interest, leading to distribution deal and English remake plans

In a move that signals a significant shift in the action film landscape, Lionsgate has acquired the North American and U.K. distribution rights for the Hindi-language action thriller “Kill,” while simultaneously green-lighting an English-language remake. This dual approach highlights the growing influence of international cinema on Hollywood and the potential for cross-cultural storytelling in the action genre.

“Kill,” directed by Nikhil Nagesh Bhat, made waves at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival, drawing comparisons to modern action classics like “The Raid” and “John Wick.” The film’s intense, claustrophobic action sequences, set primarily on a train, have critics hailing it as one of the year’s best action movies.

Lionsgate’s decision to not only distribute the original film but also fast-track an English remake underscores the studio’s confidence in the property. Chad Stahelski, director of the “John Wick” franchise, is set to produce the remake through his 87Eleven Entertainment company, further cementing the connection between “Kill” and the successful “John Wick” series.

This development comes at a time when Indian action cinema is experiencing a surge in global popularity. Recent successes like “RRR,” which won an Academy Award, and the “Baahubali” franchise have demonstrated the international appeal of Indian action spectacles. The upcoming sci-fi epic “Kalki 2898 AD” is already generating buzz, indicating a continued trend of Indian films breaking into the global market.

Kill Review

Industry experts see “Kill” as a potential game-changer for action cinema. The film’s blend of cultural specificity and universal themes of love and survival could provide a fresh template for future action blockbusters. There’s also speculation about whether the remake will maintain the Indian setting and cultural elements, which could offer a unique flavor to Western audiences.

The deal also opens doors for Indian actors to potentially become crossover stars. Names like Lakshya (who stars in “Kill”), Prabhas, Ram Charan, and N. T. Rama Rao Jr. are being mentioned as possible contenders for Hollywood roles, following in the footsteps of Chinese action stars who successfully bridged Eastern and Western cinema.

Lionsgate’s move is seen as part of a larger trend of Western studios looking to international markets for fresh ideas and talent. This approach not only diversifies the content available to global audiences but also potentially expands the market for action films worldwide.

As the action genre continues to evolve, “Kill” represents a exciting new direction. By blending the intense, choreographed violence of films like “John Wick” with the cultural richness and spectacle of Indian cinema, Lionsgate may have found the key to reinvigorating the action genre for a truly global audience.

The original “Kill” is set for North American and U.K. release through Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions, with dates to be announced. The English-language remake is in early development, with more details expected in the coming months.
