Shot well over two years ago Walter Hill’s BULLET TO THE HEAD has been delayed multiple times, but now looks set for cinemas from early next year. The film, directed by the man who gave us sure-fire classics THE DRIVER, THE WARRIORS and survival-thriller SOUTHERN COMFORT, is headlined by Sylvester Stallone as a hitman who teams up with a cop (Sung Kang) to bring down the maniac (Jason Momoa) who killed their respective partners.
The film was originally set to be helmed by THE COOLER’s Wayne Kramer (and co-star the underrated Thomas Jane in the role later going to Kang), but clashes with Stallone on the direction of the film saw him vacate the project early into production.
Here we have the first poster (using an image we first saw a full year ago) for the violent action-thriller co-starring Christian Slater, Sarah Shahi, Brian Van Holt and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje.
BULLET TO THE HEAD hits theatres from 1st February 2013 (we hope). If you missed the trailer you can catch it HERE.

Craig was our great north east correspondent, proving that it’s so ‘grim up north’ that losing yourself in a world of film is a foregone prerequisite. He has been studying the best (and often worst) of both classic and modern cinema at the University of Life for as long as he can remember. Craig’s favorite films include THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, JFK, GOODFELLAS, SCARFACE, and most of John Carpenter’s early work, particularly THE THING and HALLOWEEN.
