Simon Pegg tries on the guise of a professional hitman
Perfectly content with his life of casually murder, things get suddenly complicated when he realises he isn’t the only person trying to kill the siren (Alice Braga) of a sun-drenched surfing town.
Caught up in the complications surrounding this woman, his client and a big wad of missing money, Wolfe starts to realise that his job may not be as simple as he first thought.

It seems like director Kriv Stenders agreed with Pegg’s comic ability.
He explained: "When we thought of the idea that Simon would play Charlie, we thought that’s exactly the right choice because that gives us the chance to have fun with the telling of the story.

"Simon was like the keystone to the whole project and the whole way the film is read, because he’s registering it at a particular level that I think audiences will really enjoy and laugh, as well as be surprised and have a few shocks."
The film opened in Australia in November 2014 and will be rolled out in the US on April 10 this year. To watch the trailer, click here.
