The film follows a hitman (Cage) who goes to Bangkok on an assignment. The original film's main character is a deaf-mute whose disability makes him a fearless, unflinching gunman. That character has been changed in the remake.

"We'd like to keep him the same, but we understand that from a marketing point of view Nic needs to have some lines," Oxide was quoted as saying in the International Herald Tribune. "So what we’re going to do is transform his girlfriend instead into a deaf-mute. This switch will maintain the drama of communication between the two main characters."
