RECENTLY RELEASED / VOD

  • U.S. release: May 22, 2026 (Samuel Goldwyn Films, theatrical)
  • Director: Elliott Montello
  • Cast: Scott Adkins, Vinnie Jones, Mark Strange, Nicole Dean
  • Stunt Coordinator: Jude Poyer
  • IMDb: Reckless (2026)

British heist actioner — Adkins's parolee has to outwit the police to claim his share of an old job, with Vinnie Jones and Mark Strange coming after him. Jude Poyer's coordination work (Gangs of London, Havoc) lands close-quarters fights in the Adkins idiom against a Ritchie-flavored crime backdrop. Bowed on Sky Cinema in the UK earlier in the year; this is the U.S. trailer cut.

An Enemy Within

  • U.S. release: May 15, 2026 (Saban Films, Digital / VOD)
  • Director / Writer: John Michael Kennedy
  • Cast: William Moseley, Patrick Baladi, Kim Spearman, Alexander Lincoln, Tristan Gemmill
  • 2nd Unit Director: Guy Davies
  • IMDb: An Enemy Within

British single-night thriller — a groom is ordered to kill his father-in-law before midnight or his bride dies, with an assassin closing in across the wedding reception. The action sits inside the venue: close-quarters fights staged through guests and tight hallway/staircase choreography, edged-weapon and pistol work, and the kind of contained-location stunt design (controlled falls, glass and furniture breaks) that this scale of British actioner relies on.
