Directed by: Michael Jai White

When an underground fighting league resurfaces with deadly stakes, former champions Case Walker (Michael Jai White) and John “The Reaper” Grady (Scott Adkins) return to the arena, not for glory, but for justice. Their mission: to dismantle the syndicate from within. But standing in their way is Magnus Kreel (Nathan Jones), a monstrous ex-mercenary turned fighter who seeks not just victory, but also the end of their careers. Scott Adkins returns with blazing speed and bone-crushing intensity.

Michael Jai White is both tactical and powerful, coaching and fighting with brutal finesse.

Nathan Jones is a terrifying force of nature: raw power, without rules.

The fight choreography blends modern MMA, street fighting, and cinematic martial arts with striking realism.

The themes of redemption, honor, and the price of doing what’s right.

Never Back Down V is a high-octane, bare-knuckle return to the underground, where warriors clash not only for victory, but for their souls.
