Donald Cerrone wasn’t lying when he said he was going to be a movie star.
Following his MMA retirement at UFC 276, ‘Cowboy’ said you wouldn’t be seeing the last of him. That looks to be the case as the fighter-turned-actor landed a lead role in upcoming movie, ‘Project Legion’.
The Plot
According to Fansided, the movie features Cerrone playing a former marine who fends off zombie-like creatures in a post-apocalyptic setting. It’s ‘Cowboy’ vs. the world as his character boards up his apartment to defend against the ongoing invasion.
The post-apocalyptic flick is slated to release in select theaters on Oct. 7. ‘Project Legion’ will also be available to stream digitally on Oct. 11.
