I want you to close your eyes and think of a simpler time — like back in the '80s when the original American Gigolo came to theaters. Fans couldn't get enough of the ever-suave Richard Gere as Julian Kaye, and the film earned cult classic status.
Now, after many, many, many years of waiting, fans of the original film are getting a spin-off series that follows Julian, this time played by Jon Bernthal, 15 years after the 1980 film took place.
