Jonathan Majors is set to star in director Gerard McMurray’s upcmong action movie True Threat.
The movie follows Special Forces operative ‘Vernon Threat’ (Majors) “as he embarks on a relentless quest for justice after his teenage son is murdered by a Harlem gang known as The Apollo Kids.
“Determined to take revenge, Threat infiltrates The Carter, a towering 20-story project building that serves as the gang’s stronghold, battling his way to the top floor to confront their leader and his former mentor, ‘Shallow.’”
The movie is said to combine “gripping action with deep themes of fatherhood, brotherhood, and community responsibility, True Threat promises to deliver a culturally urgent and relentlessly kinetic experience.”
True Threat is being produced by CAT5, the action-focused film label launched by Alexis Garcia last year with the backing of Fifth Season. CAT5’s first release is the David Ayer-directed Working Man with Jason Statham will be released this weekend.
McMurray directs from a script he co-wrote with Hodge K. Johnson, and the movie is said to “prominently feature 52 Blocks, a Black American martial arts style, making it the first major film to showcase the discipline.”
This new come shortly after it was announced that Majors would star in the revenge thriller Merciless, directed by Martin Villeneuve.
I’m surprised that Majors is making a comeback after being convicted of sexual assault. there are a lot of other people that have been blacklisted in Hollywood, who are still stuggling who weren’t even convicted.
