White and Eric Roberts, and is based on a script provided by Adam and Seth Gross (Devour).

Not much is known about the film’s plot at this point (and let’s be realistic: the plot isn’t what’s going to make or break this film), other than that it focuses on four female fighters in a competition to the death on an exotic island. It’s selling point should be that Corey Yuen brings years of experience as an action director/choreographer onto this project following his work on films such as Rise to Honor, Bulletproof Monk, Cradle 2 The Grave, The One, Kiss Of The Dragon, Romeo Must Die and even X-Men. And it stars a bunch of lovely femmes fatales, including the gorgeous Devon Aoki, who readers of our site are bound to remember as the lethal Miho in Robert Rodriguez’ Sin City.

DOA: Dead or Alive is scheduled for an August 2006 release.
