About Prisoner of War
British RAF Wing Commander James Wright is captured by the Japanese during WWII and forced to fight in brutal hand-to-hand combat. The Japanese soldiers get more than they bargained for when Wright’s years of martial arts training in Hong Kong prove him to be a formidable opponent.
Directed by Louis Mandylor, Prisoner of War leans on a strong ensemble — Scott Adkins, Peter Shinkoda, Michael Copon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 2025.
