  • Mike Tyson Joins 'Kickboxer: Retaliation'
Legendary boxer Mike Tyson will star in the upcoming film “Kickboxer: Retaliation”, a sequel to yet-to-be released martial arts film “Kickboxer: Vengeance”.

Tyson will portray a tough convict forced into a world of fighting behind bars.
 
“This is a monumental moment for us. We have already signed on 14 champions from the sporting world, mostly decorated fighters from the UFC, being able to add Mike Tyson as a cast member adds a whole new element and excitement to the film,” producer Robert Hickman said.
 
“Kickboxer: Vengeance”, which has been directed by John Stockwell, stars Alain Moussi, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Dave Bautista, Gina Carano, Georges St-Pierre and Darren Shahlavi. 
 
The film is a remake of the original 1989 film “Kickboxer”.
