Filmmaker Mark Earl Burman hasn’t solo-directed a full feature in more than twenty-five years, but he’s worked within capacity as a producer on dozens of titles in addition to several more acting and screenwriting credits. His sophomore effort treads familiar territory for fans of compelling military and survival dramas with Ambush, tracking back to 1966 during the Vietnam War with the story of a mission gone awry.
Mark Burman’s new war thriller, Ambush, guarantees some explosive action to come now with an official trailer on hand. Burman directs from a script he wrote along with Johnny Lozano and Michael McClung, with Saban Films slating an Digital, On-Demand and theatrical release for February 24.

Mark Earl Burman (Dog Eat Dog) is set to direct action thriller, Ambush, as announced by Highland Film Group and Saban Films on Thursday. Highland is handling international sales on the movie which will shoot this Fall on-location in Colombia, amid strict compliance with Covid-19 health guidelines to ensure the cast and crew’s well-being.
Seasoned stunt professional, action director John Salvitti (Pound Of Flesh, Special ID, Tiger Cage 2) has come a long way with his new movie, Ambush, now putting out a new trailer following updates late last year.
Having been one of action cinema’s most influential stalwarts in the last three decades, it’s pretty clear venerable fight choreographer and actor John Salvitti (In The Line Of Duty 4, Flash Point, Pound Of Flesh) would want to carry over his creative stride to the director’s chair.
