Well Go USA has released the official trailer for Prisoner of War, a gripping World War II action thriller led by martial arts superstar Scott Adkins. Directed by Louis Mandylor and written by Marc Clebanoff from a story conceived by Adkins himself, the film is set for a theatrical release on September 19, 2025.
Set in the harrowing backdrop of the Pacific theatre during WWII, Prisoner of War follows British SAS officer James Wright (played by Adkins), who is captured by Japanese forces and thrown into a Philippine POW camp. As the prisoners face the looming horror of the Bataan Death March, Wright and his fellow soldiers are forced into brutal gladiator-style death matches, staged for the sadistic entertainment of their captors. The film combines historical intensity with visceral, high-stakes combat, offering a fresh spin on the classic war survival genre.
The cast also includes Peter Shinkoda, Michael Copon, Gabbi Garcia, MMA legend Cowboy Cerrone, and more. The trailer showcases gritty visuals, relentless action choreography, and a raw emotional core — with Adkins delivering what early viewers are calling a “career-best” performance. Known for his precision and physicality in films like Undisputed and Avengement, Adkins now brings that same intensity to a character grappling with both physical and psychological survival.
Prisoner of War is poised to resonate with fans of both historical war dramas and hard-hitting martial arts cinema. With its compelling blend of real-world stakes, emotional grit, and explosive action, the film explores not just survival, but the strength of the human spirit under the most extreme conditions.
