BANGKOK (The Nation Thailand/ANN): After becoming popular among netizens last month, a man considered a John Wick-lookalike is going to become a real star, with a role in a new Thai film directed by Ping Lumprapleng.

Andreas “Woon Sen” Kalias, a German man married to a Thai woman in Nakhon Ratchasima province, will take a surprising role in a comedy film “Saen Sanan Phan San Soo” as a Hollywood hitman taking his dog for a walk on the beach.

The videos of Kalias shared on his wife’s TikTok account “Tuktiklife” drew several funny comments from Thai social-media users in May.

The film is currently under production, and stars Jirayu “Kao” La-ongmanee and Sananthachat “Fon” Thanapatpisal.

Many of them said he looked very much like John Wick, while others joked that the hitman could be on a new mission in Thailand.

Nine short clips shared on the account showed the John Wick lookalike at different places in Thailand while making coffee, selling grilled cuttlefish, washing dishes, and visiting Bangkok’s Wat Arun in Thai traditional attire.

The videos attracted views ranging from 106,000 to 4.7 million during that time. - The Nation Thailand/ANN
