Hit Man, directed by Richard Linklater, starring Glen Powell and scored by Graham Reynolds, has debuted on Netflix at #1. Graham Reynold’s Hit Man soundtrack is out now!
Hitman tells the unbelievable true story of Gary Johnson (Powell), a strait-laced professor who discovers his hidden talent as a fake hit man. He meets his match in a client who steals his heart and ignites a powder keg of deception, delight, and mixed-up identities.
Reynolds’ idiosyncratic cross-genre score combines disparate elements seamlessly to reflect the comic and emotional components of the story, with a nod to the NOLA location.
