If your day needs a little pick me up, hop on over to Beyond Hollywood for the (NSFW) trailer to Lionsgate’s forthcoming direct-to-DVD action flick Black Cobra. The film stars three time “Martial Arts Hall of Fame” inductee T.J. Storm (Punisher: War Zone) as a man out to raise enough cash to get his father out of prison before the old man is murdered by gangs. In the process T.J. ends up having to deal with all sorts of criminal element, including Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa (Mortal Kombat, Showdown in Little Tokyo).
The trailer promises plenty of martial arts ass-kicking and self-aware quips. The film itself lands in retail on May 22, 2012. Who knows: as long as Black Cobra has some halfway decent fight choreography, T.J. Storm could end up becoming one of our next action icons.
