Hit Man has debuted on Starz's global streaming charts, more than two years after the film's initial release, according to ScreenRant. The move to Starz gives the 2024 crime comedy an expanded audience following its earlier run on Netflix.
The R-rated film was directed by Richard Linklater and stars Glen Powell as Gary Johnson, a man who poses as a contract killer.
