UFC fighter Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone stars in the upcoming zombie film Project Legion, which is set to receive a theatrical release on October 7th, with an Apple TV release following just four days later on October 11th. With those dates just a few weeks away, a trailer for Project Legion has arrived online and can be seen in the embed above.
Lance Kawas (Good Thief) directed Project Legion from a screenplay he crafted with John Sullivan, Michael Pizzimenti, and James Raptoplous. Apparently they put together quite an epic, because Apple has the movie listed with a running time of 2 hours and 38 minutes. The story told over those 158 minutes has the following synopsis:
Feral creatures that prey on humans have descended upon the city. A furious fight for survival begins as the outside world descends into chaos and a former Marine (UFC superstar Donald “Cowboy” Cerrone), barricaded inside his apartment, prepares to come out fighting. Project Legion is a heart-pounding action/thriller.
Cerrone, whose previous acting credits include roles in The Terminal List, The Commando, and Spenser Confidential, is joined in the cast of Project Legion by Brande Roderick (Baywatch), Kelly Lynn Reiter (Maneater), Chris Maher (Blowback), Vincent E. McDaniel (MacGruber), Habib Madison (30 Seconds in Hell), Dino Dos Santos (American Ultra), newcomer Danny R. Casillas, and writer Michael Pizzimenti.
Kawas and Roderick produced the film with Asif Akbar and Al Bravo. Pizzimenti was associate producer, while Cerrone and Raptoplous served as executive producers alongside Elias Axume. McDaniel co-produced with Mark David.
What did you think of the Project Legion trailer? Does this look like a movie you’ll be watching in October? Share your thoughts on this one by leaving a comment below. It looks to me like it could be entertaining, but I’m not sure I would want to spend 158 minutes with it. Hopefully that listing is a typo.
