Synopsis
The Fable (ザ・ファブル, 2019) is a Japanese action-comedy you can watch online on iFILM. He goes by the nickname Fable. A Tokyo hitman so precise he can eliminate six targets in a second — and none of his clients have ever seen his face. Then his boss pulls him off the board for a year. Go live in Osaka. Be normal.
Junichi Okada plays the assassin now navigating office paperwork and coworker small-talk with the same focused discipline he'd bring to a job. His handler poses as his little sister, local yakuza cover the rent, and the ground rule is simple: no killing. Directed by Kan Eguchi and adapted from Katsuhisa Minami's manga, the film earns its comedy from watching a flawless predator take filing deadlines completely seriously. Fumino Kimura and Koichi Sato round out the cast. Stream The Fable on iFILM.
