Simon Pegg as hitman in “Kill Me Three Times” black comedy trailer

Kill Me Three Times has received a new trailer, Digital Spy said.

Simon Pegg stars as a hitman in the trailer for the Australian black comedy.

The film centres around Charlie Wofle (Pegg) who is hired to kill a man's wife.

He discovers that he is not the only killer on her trail, as the situation dissolves into a chaos of blackmail and killing.

Sullivan Stapleton, Teresa Palmer, Alice Braga, Callan Mulvey and Luke Hemsworth also feature in the Kriv Stenders-directed movie.

The film screened at the London Film Festival.

Kill Me Three Times will be released in US cinemas on December 31. A UK release date is yet to be announced.
