Netflix has announced the release date for the Thai movie "My Dearest Assassin" (เลือดรักนักฆ่า).

It is an original project from the streaming platform.

The story follows a young woman named Lan, played by Baifern Pimchanok Leuwisedpaiboon ("Thicha", "A Tale of Ylang Ylang"). She is born with a rare blood type. After her parents are killed, she is rescued by a clan of assassins called «House 89», which becomes her only family. Years later, the man who murdered her parents resumes his hunt for Lan’s blood. This time, she decides to stand up and defend herself and those she loves.

Tor Thanapob Leeratanakajorn ("My Cherie Amour", "Midnight Museum") plays Pran, the heir to the assassin clan «House 89». Porsche Sivakorn Adulsuttikul (a rapper and member of the group 9×9) takes on the role of Em, an orphan who grew up in «House 89».

In its press release, Netflix describes the film with the phrase: “Action first, but rooted in emotion.”

Western critics have already drawn parallels between the new movie and the cult franchise "John Wick" starring Keanu Reeves. But unlike "John Wick", this film adds coming‑of‑age elements, focusing on how the main heroine finds her new family and learns to protect the ones she loves.

"My Dearest Assassin" will mark the first on‑screen pairing of Tor Thanapob and Baifern Pimchanok, which has generated huge buzz among fans.

The film is set to premiere on Netflix on May 7, 2026.
