Mike Tyson and The Mountain star in trailer for Desert Strike

December 27, 2020 by Gary Collinson

After making his return to the ring for his recent exhibition bout against Roy Jones Jr., Mike Tyson now turns his hand to the B-movie action arena as ITN Distribution has released a trailer for Desert Strike (a.k.a. Pharaoh’s War), an Egyptian action thriller which sees Iron Mike starring alongside Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, a.k.a. The Mountain from Game of Thrones.

It’s a gloriously bad trailer, packed with awkward action, even more awkward acting, stock muzzle flashes, royalty free punch sound effects, and multiple explosions – a few of which, to their credit, actually look rather impressive. Watch the trailer here…

There’s no word yet as to when we can expect Desert Strike, but we keenly await more news.
