In recent years, the Singapore skyline and famous landmarks have been featured in numerous movies, but for upcoming action thriller Hitman: Agent 47, expect to see a sizable amount of recognizable locations from our sunny island!

Check out the new trailer and poster below!

Famous Singapore landmarks featured include The Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay, The Arts House (former Parliament House), The Supreme Court, The Art Science Museum at Marina Bay Sands and The Singapore Flyer, can be clearly seen in the trailer and poster.

“An epic, action film like “AGENT 47” demands a global scale. To be the first American studio film to present this truly unique locale as a backdrop is an incredible opportunity. The Singapore Media Development Authority (MDA) was supportive, from our initial visit to Singapore, all the way through to completion of production. Combined with the terrific, enthusiastic local crew, Singapore was a success for our film,” commented Executive Producer Michael Hendrickson.

The film was shot in Singapore in 2014.
