It’s been three years since stills began circulating for actor and filmmaker Nick Sasso’s latest, Haymaker. He makes his debut at the helm and also stars alongside transgender actress Nomi Ruiz and actor John Ventimiglia, witj Veronica Falcón, Udo Kier, actress and stunt legend Zoë Bell, and actor D.B. Sweeney.
Haymaker follows a retired Muay Thai fighter (Sasso) working as a bouncer, who rescues an alluring transgender performer (Ruiz) from a nefarious thug, eventually becoming her bodyguard, protector, and confidant. The relationship leads Sasso’s character to make an unexpected return to fighting, risking not only his relationship, but his life. Haymaker tells a story about human dignity and love.
Following its acquisition by Gravitas Ventures and Kamikaze Dogfight, Haymaker will roll out in theaters, On Demand and Digital beginning January 29, and for that, we also have the official trailer and key art circulating as well!
