The protagonist of The Killer was originally supposed to end up in New York, but the filming locations were actually in Illinois. Instead of using the actual city, Chicago and St. Charles were utilized as stand-ins for the Big Apple. It was in these locations that the hitman tracked down 'the expert' and the person behind the assassination request, Claybourne (played by Arliss Howard). The majority of these scenes took place at the Chicago Midtown Athletic Club.

The murderer returns to the safe house in the Dominican Republic for a final reunion with his girlfriend.
