Netflix has released the teaser trailer for Hit Man, a romantic comedy disguised as a crime thriller directed by Richard Linklater and starring Glen Powell. Presented at the last Venice Film Festival, the film will debut on the platform on 7 June 2024.
Plot and official trailer of Hit Man
Gary Johnson is New Orleans’ most sought-after professional killer. For his clients, it is as if he had stepped out of a film: the mysterious hitman to be hired. But if you hire him to get rid of an unfaithful husband or a violent boss, it’s best to be on your guard, because he works for the police. When he breaks protocol to help a desperate woman trying to escape from an abusive boyfriend, he finds himself assuming one of her false identities: he falls in love with the woman. He entertains the idea of becoming a criminal himself.
Inspired by the true story told in the 2001 Texas Monthly article of the same name by journalist Skip Hollandsworth, Hit Man also stars Adria Arjona, Retta, Austin Amelio, Molly Bernard, Ritchie Montgomery, Gralen Bryant Banks, Mike Markoff, Kate Adair, Jordan Salloum and Richard Robichaux.
Director Hansal Mehta’s web series Scoop has been released on Netflix. Hansal Mehta got a lot of accolades from Scam 1992. Now once again he is present in front of the audience. The trailer of the series opened to a great response after which the expectations were equally high. The 6 episode series keeps you hooked till the end with its creativity, writing, and performances by the cast. Hansal Mehta seems to be setting a new standard. Its story is written by Mrinmoyee Lagoo Vaikul and Meerat Trivedi. The dialogues are by Karan Vyas.
Scoop Web Series Story:
The web series is based on journalist Jigna Vora’s 2019 book ‘Behind Bars in Byculla: My Days in Prison’. Shows the true story of the murder of renowned journalist Jyotirmoy Dey and the subsequent arrest of Jigna Vora. Gangster Chhota Rajan’s henchmen murder Jayadeb Sen (Prosenjit Chatterjee) in broad daylight. The story of the series focuses on senior crime reporter Jagriti Pathak (Karishma Tanna). Events develop in such a way that she gets trapped and later she has to go to jail. You will have to watch the web series for further story.
Scoop Web Series Analysis:
Hansal Mehta has kept every character interesting. There is not even a moment in the story when it seems that it has slowed down. Karan Vyas’s dialogues are accurate and maintain the rhythm of the series. Apart from this, Deepu Sebastian Edmond’s research is amazing. Amitesh Mukherjee has done tight editing.
The scoop easily sticks in your mind because of the different storylines. The focus is on Jagruti’s arrest and then her journey to Byculla Jail for a year. There is no survival drama in the series. Nor does it try to be a true crime thriller, which has been seen in many web series these days.
The Scoop doesn’t hate reporters, nor does it want you to. It respects the profession. Also shows its dangers. It also questions the status quo of clickbait journalism and controversy.

The popular show ‘The Big Bang Theory‘ airing on Netflix is embroiled in controversies. Writer and political analyst Mithun Vijaykumar has sent legal notices to Netflix, alleging that the first episode of the second season contains profanity-laced dialogue demeaning Bollywood veteran actress Madhuri Dixit. Mithun Vijaykumar stated in his notice that calling Madhuri Dixit a prostitute in a scene is objectionable.
“This episode is a violation of women’s dignity. Indian society does not condone such acts. Ethical analysis needs to be done before streaming content on public platforms. “Netflix should immediately remove that episode,” said Mithun Vijaykumar. He warned that he would approach the Supreme Court if Netflix did not respond to his notices.
Squid Game has unhinged all kinds of records since it came out on Netflix in September 2021. It has become a real popular phenomenon around the world. Fans can rest easily because the second season is in the works. While waiting, however, let’s delve into the folds of the first and discover ten little-known curiosities.
1. Squid Game wasn’t exactly cheap
Contrary to what one might expect for the first season of a foreign series, Netflix didn’t want to spare any expense for Squid Game. The budget was over $ 20 million (about 2.5 million per episode). The investment it generated, however, was equally mind-boggling: it even seems that the platform has earned a whopping 900 million dollars.
2. Pure adrenaline
One of the most adrenaline-pumping moments of Squid Game is undoubtedly crossing the glass bridge. The production revealed that the bridge was truly made of glass in order to push the actors and actresses into a more spontaneous reaction. Of course, if they fell they would not have plunged into a deadly cliff as in the series.
3. What a beautiful name
Several times throughout the first season of Squid Game we hear a character claim that Sae-Byeok (# 067, played by Jung Ho-Yeon) is a cool name. But why? Because in Korean Sae-Byeok means ‘dawn’.
4. Taken from a true story
Series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has revealed that his private life played a central role in the development of Squid Game. In fact, he too was plunged into debt and did not know how to get by. Until he wrote the script for the series (it was 2018) and after some denials, Netflix didn’t decide to put it into production.
5. White Vans fly
A phenomenon is also measured in the way in which it knows how to go beyond its own means of expression and influence other fields. Squid Game is a phenomenon, there is no doubt about that. Suffice it to say that the white canvas Vans worn by the characters sold like hot cakes after the debut of the television series. In fact, sales increased by 7800%, a real overwhelming success.
6. Memories from the set
It is now a custom – it is not known how much it is actually tolerated – that some props disappear and become souvenirs of actors and actresses who have starred in a certain film or in a certain series. Squid Game was no exception. In particular, Anupam Tripathi (number 199) decided to take home the green jumpsuit he wore in the series as a souvenir for his work.
7. An unattainable record
Not even the phenomenon Stranger Things 4 managed to break the Squid Game record, which recorded 1.7 billion hours of views in the first 28 days of release. Stranger Things 4 stopped at 1.4 billion hours.
8. Squid Game becomes reality
The success of a phenomenon, we said, is also measured by its derivations. Squid Game is undoubtedly a phenomenon. Netflix has decided to give life to Squid Game – The Challenge, a reality show based on the games of the TV series which will involve 456 people from all over the world. The prize up for grabs will be 4.56 million dollars and if it is won, of course, whoever makes it to the end of the games. Whoever loses – it is right to specify – will not be killed, but simply eliminated from the game.
9. Significant numbers
There are numbers in television series that are not made up. In particular, the telephone number that can be read on the organization’s business card and the current account into which the prize is paid to the winner. These are two really existing numbers: the first owned by a lady who reported exhausted the thousands of phone calls received; the second from one of the producers who (reluctantly) had to block the account after a few years ago they started paying 456 won.
10. Squid Game was supposed to be a movie
The creator himself revealed it: originally Squid Game was supposed to be a movie. And that’s not surprising, given Hwang’s film background who has written and directed some blockbuster films in Korea.
