J.J. Abrams will adapt King’s 2021 hitman book ‘Billy Summers’ into a full-feature film with Leonardo DiCaprio for Warner Brothers. The adaptation is written by Ed Zwick and Marshall Herskovitz.

In ‘Billy Sumers’

“Billy Summers is a hitman who is looking to retire and takes one last highly lucrative job to feather his nest. The job requires him to embed himself in a quiet town, where he pretends to be an aspiring writer. He sets up in an office with a direct view of where hitman Joel Allen will be delivered to face trial for shooting two men during a poker game. Allen has also committed enough murders for some high-level mobsters to be scared the gunman will incriminate his former employers to lessen his sentence. Summers, a meticulous craftsman, becomes more and more cynical about the mobsters who’ve hired him, and his skepticism is well warranted as things go awry following completion of the job.”
