THE OUTSIDER Official Trailer: The Dark Side Of The American Dream Is A Fight To The Finish
I can’t iterate enough how important it is that we don’t fall asleep on Jon Foo. The martial arts wunderkind who appeared in hits like House Of Fury, Tom Yum Goong and Universal Soldier: Regeneration is back once again with Timothy Woodward Jr. (4Got10, Weaponized) for western thriller, The Outsider, and the official trailer is here following its acquisition by Cinedigm a few days ago. In search of the American dream, a railroad worker (Jon Foo) finds himself on the wrong side of a lawless frontier. As the Marshall attempts to control his corrupt town, tragedy strikes sending the railroad worker on a path of retaliation. Rounding out the cast of principles are Trace Adkins who plays the Marshall, and actors Sean Patrick Flanery and Danny Trejo. Obviously The Outsider isn’t exactly the most original title but the trailer looks as good as it does in teasing the kind of […]
Streaming Action Alerts: SHADOWHUNTERS, JESSICA JONES, NEVER BACK DOWN 2, REBOOT: GUARDIAN CODE And More Coming In March
Following my recent piece, Indie Action PRIME, it was pretty well received and so I took an interest in further digging into the comings and goings of what lies ahead for three prominent streaming platforms regarding action titles. To start, we begin with No Contest approval as Hulu wins the month of March. The one-two punch of 2017 megahit Wolf Warrior 2 and Blade Of The Immortal almost seems like bullying at this point. The lineup is rounded out by a gaggle of James Bond movies, the now complete xXx series, and a Power Rangers reboot that nobody asked for. Launching in March March 1 A View to a Kill (1985) Antitrust (2001) Billy the Kid (2013) Breakdown (1997) Die Another Day (2002) F/X (1986) F/X 2 (1991) Fire with Fire (2012) For Your Eyes Only (1981) Goldeneye (1995) I’m Gonna Git You Sucka (1988) License to Kill (1989) Moonrakeer […]

Post WWII Action Thriller, THE OUTSIDER, Casts Jared Leto
Actor Jared Leto is already putting out some awesome vibes with a solid look for today’s iteration of classic DC villain, The Joker, for David Ayer’s Suicide Squad which opens in August. He’s a solid actor and thankfully this bodes well in time for Land Of Mine helmer Martin Zandvliet’s forthcoming English-language debut, The Outsider, from Waypoint Entertainment and Limson Entertainment who are financing. The new action thriller sees Leto starring as a American solider imprisoned by the Japanese during World War 2. When he succeeds in escaping with the help of his Yakuza cellmate, his freedom lures him into the dangerous criminal underworld, leaving him obligated and in service of the Yakuza in order to earn their respect amd repay his debt.

Craig Fairbass Fights To Rescue His Daughter In The New Trailer For THE OUTSIDER
The latest trailer has made its public debut for director and co-writer Brian A. Miller’s upcoming action thriller, The Outsider. The film sets rising action hero, lead actor and co-writter Craig Fairbrass (Vikingdom) in a story of a British soldier who heads to Los Angeles on a personal mission to find his missing daughter. The film also kicks off a new slate of producing and starring credits for Fairbass who recently signed a multi-picture deal with Stealth Media Group’s Adrenaline label, so it’s pretty fair to say 2014 may be a fun year to forward to. The trailer looks great with Fairbass alongside actors Jason Patric and James Caan, as it definitely looks promising for anyone who can always use a good film to enjoy, and as such, that day comes February 7, 2014 on VoD and in U.S. theaters. The Outsider also stars Shannon Elizabeth, Melissa Ordway, Johnny Messner, […]
