Immortal Combat takes a simple B-movie idea and runs with it. Historical figures including Joan of Arc, Genghis Khan, Cleopatra, Attila the Hun, and Oda Nobunaga are pulled from different eras and forced into a futuristic death tournament run by a mysterious organization. Released on May 1, 2026, the film clearly targets fans of arena combat stories, mixing time travel, martial arts, and sci-fi action into a fast-moving survival plot.
Eve Fournier plays Joan of Arc as the emotional center of the story, while Roxanne G.C. Brooks brings a commanding presence to Cleopatra. Charlit Dae’s Genghis Khan and Samuel Selman’s Shaka Zulu add much of the film’s physical intensity, creating some of the stronger confrontations inside the tournament. Instead of focusing on one hero-versus-villain setup, the movie builds tension around rival warriors who gradually realize they are being used by the organization controlling the games.
Directed by Monroe Robertson and produced by The Asylum, the film embraces the studio’s familiar low-budget action style. The futuristic arena setting allows the story to move quickly between fights without spending much time on world-building. Costumes play a major role in helping each historical figure stand apart, while the action scenes lean more toward tournament-style matchups than large-scale visual effects. The movie’s biggest draw is the unusual mix of warriors pulled from completely different periods of history and forced into the same battlefield.
Immortal Combat was released in the United States on May 1, 2026. The film became available through digital video-on-demand platforms including Fandango at Home, with rental and purchase options available in supported regions. Viewers can also find the movie through digital storefronts and streaming services that carry The Asylum’s releases.
