Check out the first trailer for the upcoming action drama
Warrior, which stars
Tom Hardy, Joel Edgerton and
Nick Nolte and is helmed by director
Gavin O'Connor (Miracle)
Synopsis: Haunted by a tragic past, ex-Marine Tommy Conlon (Hardy) returns home for the first time in fourteen years to enlist the help of his father (Nolte) to train for SPARTA, the biggest winner-takes-all event in mixed martial arts history. A former wrestling prodigy, Tommy blazes a path toward the championship while his brother, Brendan (Edgerton), an ex-fighter-turned teacher, returns to the ring in a desperate bid to save his family from financial ruin. But when Brendan's unlikely, underdog rise sets him on a collision course with the unstoppable Tommy, the two brothers must finally confront each other and the forces that pulled them apart, facing off in the most soaring, soul stirring, and unforgettable climax that must be seen to be believed.
A rousing ode to redemption, reconciliation and the power of the human spirit,
Warrior is also a moving testament to the enduring bonds of family.
The film also stars
Jennifer Morrison, Noah Emmerich, Bryan Callen, Kevin Dunn, Denzel Whitaker, Kurt Angle and
Frank Grillo.
Warrior is released across the US from September 9th 2011.
