Watch the Tapped Out Trailer

The interconnected worlds of UFC and MMA haven’t exactly taken Hollywood by storm, but they’ve been gaining strategic acceptance thanks to the critically acclaimed (but sadly underperforming) Warrior, the critically shamed (but sadly overperforming) Here Comes the Boom, and the general understanding that Gina Carano is the new action heroine du jour, or at least the new Michelle Rodriguez, after Haywire and Fast and Furious 6.

The latest example is Tapped Out, a new revenge thriller starring relative newcomer and five-time World Karate Champion Cody Hackman as a young man out to avenge the deaths of his parents under the tutelage of Terminator star Michael Biehn. Directed by first-time feature filmmaker Allan Ungar, Tapped Out co-stars UFC veterans Krzysztof Soszynski, Anderson Silva and Lyota Machida, making the film’s cast, at least, an obvious draw to fighting fans the world over. It also stars original Karate Kid bad guy Martin Kove. You know, that “sweep the leg” guy? “Defeat does not exist at this dojo?” That kind of thing? He’s still weaseling his way into the lives of young fighters with a grudge in Tapped Out.

Are you a UFC fan? Check out the Tapped Out trailer above and let us know what you think. The film hits theaters on May 27, 2014.
