It&#8217;s also her second major release of 2026, the first being the dark comedy thriller <em>The Gallerist<\/em>, which premiered in January at Sundance Film Festival. The assassin-focused show promises a high-octane series of events that will feature a number of familiar faces and compelling stories in the process.
