Michael Iskander Manifested 'House of David' Role After Watching 'The Chosen'

The production banner 87North, the crew behind John Wick, Bullet TrainViolent Night, and Nobody is back with more action-based thrills in the debut trailer for veteran stunt coordinator JoJo Eusebio's feature debut: Love Hurts.

Academy Award-winner Ke Huy Quan (Everything Everywhere All at Once) once again gets to let his stunt choreography skills shine in the role of Marvin Gable, a successful and mild-mannered realtor in the Milkwaukee suburbs hiding a dark secret that's revealed by the arrival of a crimson envelope containing two cryptic messages: "Love Hurts" and "Hiding ain't Living."

The letter, it transpires, was sent by Rose (Ariana DeBose), a disgruntled former partner in crime Marvin left for dead years before. Her return forcibly drags the realtor back into a shady world of hitmen, double-crosses, deadly war zones, and the occasional open house. Hunted by his vicious crime lord brother, Knuckles (Daniel Wu), "Marvin must confront the choices that haunt him and the history he never truly buried," reads the official synopsis.

Recently speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Quan confessed he was initially puzzled after being first offered the role and suggested they pursue Jason Statham instead. Thankfully, the producers persisted and convinced the actor, who saw Marvin as “a different kind of action star, not the action star we have seen in the last few decade," Quan said. "He's not afraid to be vulnerable; he doesn't look like a badass until the situation is called for. That’s an interesting take on the genre."
