Martial arts star Scott Adkins (Triple Threat, Eliminators) will be re-teaming with action director Isaac Florentine (Close Range, Undisputed 2: Last Man Standing) for a ninth time in an MMA-themed thriller titled Strapped, which begins production later this year.

In Strapped, Adkins plays a former MMA fighter forced to confront the heart of his dark past following a brutal robbery and the theft of his championship belt (via FCS).

Adkins and Florentine recently completed Seized, (with Solo star Mario Van Peebles) which releases later this year. Until then, here’s the classic Trailer for Florentine’s Jean-Claude Van Damme actioner The Shepherd that featured Adkins in a co-starring role.
