The MMA franchise installment is now available on demand.
Michael Bisping is many things. The UFC fighter turned unlikely UFC middleweight Champion, is commentator, newly minted author, and an actor who has built up a pretty lengthy filmography. His latest role is in the new installment of the Never Back Down MMA franchise, Never Back Down Revolt. As Bisping explained on his Twitter account, he plays a bad guy.
Never Back Down Revolt is released today on digital download, blu-ray, on demand etc.
As I say I play Janek who is nasty little shit but I think you might like him haha.
Big thanks to all the cast and crew for making this such a great experience to film and I hope you all like it pic.twitter.com/R7HBRkz4xV— michael (@bisping) November 17, 2021
Unfortunately for Bisping, a dubious marketing strategy by Sony Pictures created a negative reaction to the trailer. After promising Spider-Man fans that a No Way Home trailer would be released, Sony instead foisted a Never Back Down: Revolt trailer onto a cranky Marvel army. It’s hard to say why Sony thought the people who enjoy Spider-Man would also like to see Michael Bisping beat up women, but unsurprisingly, they didn’t.
Whether non-Marvel audiences will like Janek remains to be seen. The character is pretty villainous, as the plot centers around kidnapped women forced to fight for the entertainment of evil men. Olivia Popica and James Faulkner also star.
Never Back Down: Revolt is now available on Blu Ray and Digital.
