| Jennifer Oguzie - |
Barely being able to make ends meet and working at every job he can find, Hector Chavez turns to his fighting roots to pay for his gravely ill young son's medical bills. When his amateur Mixed Martial Arts videos go viral and earn him the recognition of the world's top MMA federation he is given a chance to go into the cage against the World Champion. A dream opportunity becomes a fight for his life when he learns the Champion's last opponent is in critical condition in the same hospital as his son. Hector must risk it all so his son can have the surgery he needs to survive.
ABOUT THE CAST
HECTOR CHAVEZ: Hector Echavarria
Idolized by millions in Latin America, and a legendary Martial Arts champion in his native Argentina, Hector Echavarria, brings to the Hollywood film industry a background of business success, acting experience, and martial arts expertise.
In addition to producing and starring in his own films, Hector has become an industrial force- with his own clothing line, martial arts federation, real estate holdings, children’s toys and action figures, and an entertainment production company. And now, with his multi-picture slate of action films in which he stars and produces, others are calling him the Tyler Perry of the Hispanic action market.
From the beginning Hector Echavarria has exceeded all expectations. A sickly child, his mother enrolled him in martial arts school. As a teenager, he was winning fights against much bigger opponents in the mean alleys of Corrientes, Argentia and moved his skills into the ring, where became a legendary martial arts champion. For years he starred in an ultra-popular Latin American television series Brigada, based on the three-film series Los Exterminators, in which he made his acting debut. Even a comic-strip for children was created, following Hector’s real-life exploits.
His plan to capture the United States and world markets has been to hone his filmmaking expertise, starting with a multi-picture deal to produce and star in a series of action films distributed on Blue Ray and DVD by Lionsgate. These included Death Warrior, Unrivalled, Confessions of a Pit Fighter, also starring Armand Assante, Flavor Flav and Oscar nominated John Savage, Never Surrender (which he also directed), and the horror film Lake Dead (for After Dark Films).
