BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., Sept. 2 (UPI) -- Kevin James' action-comedy True Memoirs of an International Assassin is set to premiere on Netflix Nov. 11.

Directed by Jeff Wadlow, the movie stars James as Sam Larson, "a mild-mannered, would-be author who gets mistaken for a killer-for-hire when his fictional novel about an international assassin is published as a true story," a synopsis said.

"When the book is a huge success, he is suddenly kidnapped, taken out of the country, and forced into an assassination plot."

The film co-stars Andy Garcia, Zulay Henao, Maurice Compte, Andrew Howard, Rob Riggle, Kelen Coleman, Leonard Earl Howze, Yul Vasquez and Kim Coates. The script was written by Jeff Morris and Jeff Wadlow.

James is best known for his work on the sitcom The King of Queens. He will soon star in the new CBS comedy series Kevin Can Wait.
