Dominic Lewis (The Man in the High Castle, Peter Rabbit, Money Monster, Monsters at Work, Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween) has been hired to score the upcoming action thriller Bullet Train.

The movie is based on the Japanese novel Maria Beetle by best-selling author Kotaro Isaka and follows five assassins who find themselves on a fast moving train in Japan and realize that their assignments have something in common. Zak Olkewitz wrote the screenplay. Leitch is also producing the project with Kelly McCormick (Atomic Blonde, Nobody) through 87North, alongside Antoine Fuqua (Training Day, The Equalizer) through Fuqua Films. “Have to pinch myself regularly that I get to work with David on this incredible movie,” Lewis said in a statement.
