Jackie Chan (Police Story 2013) and John Cena (The Marine) are joining forces for Project X-Traction (aka Ex-Baghdad), an $80M budget, Iraq-based thriller directed by Scott Waugh (Need for Speed) and written by Arash Amel (Erased).

Project X-Traction also stars Pilou Asbæk (Ghost in the Shell) and Jiang Wenli (The Final Master). Sylvester Stallone was originally set to star alongside Chan, but was replaced by Cena for reasons unknown.

Here what’s you can expect from the film’s plot (via Deadline): When a China-run oil refinery is attacked in Mosul, Iraq, a Chinese private security contractor (Chan) is called in to extract the oil workers. He learns, however, that the attackers’ real plan is to steal a fortune in oil, and teams up with an American former Marine (Cena) to stop them.
