From Wikipedia:
Marty Supreme is a 2025 American sports comedy-drama film co-produced and directed by Josh Safdie from a screenplay he co-wrote with Ronald Bronstein, loosely based on the life and career of American table tennis player Marty Reisman. Co-produced by and starring Timothée Chalamet, the film also features Gwyneth Paltrow, Odessa A’zion, Kevin O’Leary, Tyler Okonma, Abel Ferrara, and Fran Drescher in supporting roles.
The main posters feature the title in a stretched and manipulated version of Gill Kayo Condensed and corresponding headers in Neue Helvetica Condensed, including its Heavy style. The billing block is set in Bee Two.
Eric Gill, the designer of Gill Sans, initially called the ultrabold style “Sans Double Elefans”. Released as Kayo, derived from “K.O.” (i.e. knockout in boxing), it feels appropriate for the main movie title on the poster, as it is a very prominent typeface used in sports.

The movie logo compared to a resetting in Gill Kayo Condensed with stretched letterforms. Various subsequent optimizations have been made, see for example the horizontals in T and E, the counters in A and Y, or the bottom of U. In the process, some glyphs like R ended up resembling Gill Sans Extra Condensed Bold.
