Get ready to watch Amazon Prime’s Original crime mystery film Killer Heat inspired by the short story “The Jealousy Man” by Jo Nesbø. The movie premiered on Prime Video on Sept. 26, and it’s the No. 1 movie on Prime Video worldwide and No. 2 in the U.S.
The film follows a private investigator (played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt) who is called to Crete, Greece, to look into a questionable death. As he investigates, he uncovers jealousies run deep within the victim’s powerful family, according to Prime Video .
For those who enjoy watching crime and mystery thriller movies, this is a great film to add to your list. “This is a story about jealousy, and jealousy is a demon that human beings all over the world,” Gorden-Levitt said a recent interview with co-star Shailene Woodley on ComingSoon.net. “No matter what country you go to or what time in history, everybody is a universal demon. There’s a story about someone who’s succumbed to that monster in their head, telling them that they’re not good enough, that someone else is better, and turning it into a murder mystery.”
The movie is directed by Philippe Lacôte and produced by Brad Weston, Tom Karnowski, Nesbø, Niclas Salomonsson and Collin Creighton. The main cast includes Gordon-Levitt, Woodley and Richard Madden.
