The first trailer for Boyka: Undisputed V explodes onto the screen with the raw energy fans expect. The film, reportedly made on a $15 million budget*—the largest in the franchise—opens with Yuri Boyka (Scott Adkins) living a quiet life in Eastern Europe, working as a youth boxing coach. But peace is short-lived. A mysterious new syndicate, led by the ruthless Viktor Dragunov (played by real-life MMA star Alexey Ivanov), kidnaps one of Boyka’s protégés, forcing him back into the underground fight circuit.
The trailer teases brutal, high-stakes matches in neon-lit cages across Europe, with Boyka facing off against a diverse roster of fighters, each with their own unique style. Flashbacks reveal Boyka’s struggle with guilt over his violent past, and a new love interest, Elena (Maria Bakalova), who urges him to break the cycle of violence. The action is more intense than ever, with bone-crunching choreography and slick cinematography, thanks to the increased budget.
A major twist is revealed: Dragunov is connected to Boyka’s old nemesis, and the final fight is not just for freedom, but for redemption. The trailer ends with Boyka bloodied but unbowed, uttering, “I am still the most complete fighter in the world.”
Spoilers: The trailer hints that Boyka will lose his first fight, forcing him to confront his own limitations. Elena is revealed to be Dragunov’s estranged sister, adding emotional stakes. The final scene shows Boyka walking away from the ring, suggesting this could be his last fight.
Financials: With a $15 million budget*, the film is expected to gross over $50 million worldwide*, based on the franchise’s cult following and strong international market. Early projections estimate a net profit of$30 million, making it the most successful entry yet. Scott Adkins’ net worth is rumored to rise to $8 million* after backend deals and bonuses.
