Jonathan Majors is set to return to the big screen this week in South Carolina with a new action film produced by the Daily Wire, marking his first role in four years. Known for his recent performances in Creed III and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Majors joins a project inspired by classic 1980s and 1990s action movies.
Details of the New Daily Wire Film
The film remains untitled but promises to deliver a thrilling action experience reminiscent of films like Red Dawn and Toy Soldiers. The screenplay and direction are handled by Kyle Rankin, recognized for his work on Run Hide Fight. Production is overseen by Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro and Dallas Sonnier of Bonfire Legend, alongside producers Travis Mills, Lillian Campbell, and Sydney Aucreman.
This project reflects the Daily Wire’s growing commitment to entertainment through its platform DailyWire+, which has expanded its catalogue to include various feature films and documentaries. The company previously gained attention with Run Hide Fight, a tense thriller about a teenage girl confronting school shooters, as well as survival and Western films such as Shut In and Terror on the Prairie, the latter starring Gina Carano, who faced industry backlash after her departure from Disney’s The Mandalorian.
Daily Wire’s Expanding Film Portfolio and Reception
In addition to its feature films, DailyWire+ has produced documentaries like What Is a Woman? and Am I Racist?, both hosted by Matt Walsh and addressing cultural and social topics with considerable impact. The platform also released The Pendragon Cycle, a high-budget adaptation of Stephen R. Lawhead’s novels, which has drawn positive reactions from audiences and industry figures alike. Roger Avary, who co-wrote Pulp Fiction, expressed strong admiration during his recent guest spot on Joe Rogan’s podcast.
Majors’ involvement in this action film signals a significant return for the actor and highlights Daily Wire’s increasing influence in producing distinctive genre content beyond political commentary. Filming taking place in South Carolina underscores the company’s ambition to deliver high-quality productions outside the traditional Hollywood system.
With Majors leading the cast and the experienced creative team in place, this new film could mark an important moment in both the actor’s career and Daily Wire’s evolving entertainment strategy, potentially attracting broader audiences seeking action-driven stories with bold themes.
