‘Accident Man’ Is Anything But An Accident

Scott Adkins, who stars in Accident Man, shared the first ever image from the film in which he plays a hitman who embarks on a bloody revenge mission.

Here’s the first official photo from Accident Man. The story of an assassin who disguises his hits as everyday, ordinary accidents. This is my dream project since I was 15 years old. I fell in love with the comicbook, always knew it would be an amazing movie. I co-wrote, produced and of course star and I am very, very proud of this film and I know you guys are going to love it too. #scottadkins #accidentman

Adkins stars alongside Ashley Greene (The Apparition, Twilight), Ray Stevenson (Punisher: War Zone) as ‘Big Ray’; Brittany Ashworth (The Crucifixion, Hostile) as Ashley Greene’s sister, ‘Fran Adams’; David Paymer  (Drag Me to Hell) as ‘Milton’; Amy Johnston (Lady Bloodfight) as Jane the Ripper; and Michael Jai White (Spawn, Falcon Rising) as Mick.

Said to have a Deadpool-esque tone, “The story centers on the life of Mike Fallon, a high-class hitman, known for making assassinations look like unfortunate accidents. Fallon’s cavalier attitude changes the day his ex-girlfriend, Beth is murdered. He teams up with Beth’s new girlfriend Charlie (Greene) on a murderous rampage to find out who killed her.”

The film is based on a character from the graphic novel from the defunct monthly UK comic Toxic!, which was written by Pat Mills in the early 90s.

Jesse Johnson directed the film that was completed last year in London.
