"Green Street 3: Never Back Down" UK DVD Cover

If you’ve ever seen the fights that sometimes break out after a UK football match, you know that sports fans over there can be a testy bunch. Unsurprisingly, the widespread violence related to the sport has proved to be a source of inspiration to filmmakers. Back in 2005, Punisher: War Zone helmer Lexi Alexander directed Elijah Wood in Green Street Hooligans. The film managed to spawn a direct-to-video sequel in 2009, which moved the action to a prison.

Well, it looks like things are about to get even bloodier in Green Street Hooligans: Underground as action extraordinaire Scott Adkins has been called in help fill out the cast. This is actually the first British film that the England-born Adkins has been a part of. James Nunn, the filmmaker behind Fantastic Fest ’12’s breakout hit Tower Block, is handling directing duties. Today Scott Adkins posted several pictures from the film shoot on his Facebook page. Expect more news on this movie as it becomes available!

"Lari" Malaysian Theatrical Poster

At first glance, a new Malaysian martial arts film called Lari appears to be knockoff of The Raid. Whether it was intentional or not, the film’s poster features Aaron Aziz in SWAT-style clothing, similar to what Iko Uwais wears in The Raid, which happens to be the most influential action film of the last 15 years.

To set the record straight, the trailer for Lari looks nothing like The Raid. Instead of taking place in a single building, Lari is filmed with a much broader scope that includes car lots, jungles and boats. In The Raid, Uwais is practically in his SWAT outfit throughout the whole movie; whereas in the trailer for Lari, you’ll notice that Aziz is barely seen wearing SWAT garb at all.

Whether or not marketing strategies (in this case, Lari’s poster design) were feeding off the success of The Raid or not, Lari delivers the goods as far as the trailer is concerned. If anyone out there has seen Lari, definitely share your thoughts.

"Die Hard 4.0" Japanese Theatrical Poster

Last month, Sly Stallone used the words “laziness” and “greed” to describe Bruce Willis’ decision to drop out of The Expendables 3. Although Willis may be greedy, he isn’t exactly lazy. Despite hints of being “bored” of action movies, Willis is set to star in an action-thriller called The Prince, which will be directed by Sarik Andreasyan (American Heist) and written by Andre Fabrizio and Jeremy Passmore (Red Dawn remake).

Here’s the plot, according to Deadline: A retired Las Vegas mob enforcer is forced to return to the city and face his former enemies when his teenage daughter goes missing. Willis plays a man who has waited years for the enforcer to return, and a confrontation is inevitable.

The Prince starts shooting in New Orleans this October. Stay tuned for more updates.
