This film written by Don Linder and directed by Tom Waller will see Vithaya Pansringarm, who you might remember for his ruthless role opposite Ryan Gosling in Nicolas Winding Refn’s Only God Forgives, continue to make life hard for many, though in a totally different fashion.

In The Last Executioner, which draws inspiration from a true story, he portrays Chavoret Jaruboon, a former rock n’ roller whose destiny sees him switch professions and become Thailand’s last prison executioner to use the gun to dispatch his victims.

He’s joined by a seasoned cast of Penpak Sirikul, David Asavanond, Pisarn Akraseranee and Nirut Sirichanya. The movie is said to touch on the law of karma and will be in local cinemas this June.
