Review: Paul Schrader’s 1980 drama American Gigolo is primarily remembered for two things: serving as the film that launched Richard Gere to stardom and for featuring Blondie’s hit song “Call Me” as its main theme. In the four decades since it premiered, American Gigolo has remained a well-regarded yet underseen film that helped define the look and style of 80s films and culture.

Sex sells, but murder is where the real money is.
Jon Bernthal stars as Julian Kaye, an ex-escort who sets out to exonerate himself after serving 15 years for a murder charge for the death of his former client. Kaye finds former lover Michelle (Gretchen Mol) for answers, while Detective Sunday (Rosie O’Donnell) tries to piece together what really happened at the crime scene.
The Showtime series reimagines the Kaye character originated by Richard Gere in Paul Schrader’s 1980 film “American Gigolo.”
The drama also stars Lizzie Brocheré as Isabelle, the heiress to a ring of sex workers; Gabriel Labelle as Johnny, a younger version of Julian; Leland Orser as Richard Stratton, a self-made tech billionaire; and guest star Wayne Brady as Julian’s best friend and mentor, Lorenzo.
Lead star Bernthal previously told GQ that he was even surprised to be cast in the lead role for the upcoming series.
