Diablo
Scott Adkins and Marko Zaror are all set to reunite for
the upcoming action flick, Diablo. As per a report by
Deadline, while the actors will join forces for the movie,
their characters will be on opposite sides as the pair go
head-to-head, toe-to-toe, and no doubt fist-to-fist in
what’s sure to be an explosion of sublime action cinema.
Diablo finds Scott Adkins starring as a man named Kris
Chaney who, after being released from prison, “embarks
on a perilous mission to fulfill an old promise but finds
himself in danger when he kidnaps Elisa, the daughter of
a powerful gangster.” Of course, this leads to her father,
Vincent, putting out “a call to the entire criminal
underworld to bring her back alive,” which brings Marko
Zaror into the fray as El Corvo, a psychopathic killer, who
“joins the hunt not for the money but for his own
vendetta against Vincent’s family.”

“Kris must evade both Elisa’s powerful father and a ruthless killer bent on revenge to live long enough to tell Elisa
the full story that has been hidden from her,” the rest of the description for Diablo reads.
Directed by Ernesto Díaz Espinoza, who has worked with Marko Zaror before on both Redeemer and The Fist of
the Condor, Diablo has been written by Mat Sansom and is due to shoot later this year in Chile and will be
presented to potential buyers at the upcoming Cannes market.
