Zack Snyder to Direct ‘Brawler,’ Teaming With Dana White’s UFC and Saudi Minister Turki Alalshikh
Zack Snyder is teaming with Dana White's UFC and His Excellency Turki Alalshikh for his next movie, 'Brawler,' a mixed martial arts drama.
The filmmaker, who will also co-write and produce, is teaming with Dana White’s UFC for the film, as well as His Excellency Turki Alashikh, chairman of the General Entertainment Authority of Saudi Arabia and owner of boxing magazine The Ring. “I’ve been a fan of Zack’s work for years, his unique style — from his iconic action sequences to his sweeping visuals and intensely emotional storytelling — coupled with his humanized portrayal of deeply-flawed characters is singular,” Alashikh said in a statement. UFC recently leant its branding to Amazon MGM’s “Road House” remake, which released in March 2024 and starred Jake Gyllenhaal as a former MMA fighter.
