Former UFC greats Tito Ortiz and Cris Cyborg are set to star in a new action film titled Operation Black Ops.

The two MMA legends will team up in this venure, which will be interesting to see as others have made a transition from MMA to acting. They are set to play the role of mercenaries as they target a group of Neo-Nazis in Texas. MMA Fighting's Damon Martin shared a picture of the poster featuring the former UFC light heavyweight champion, along with more information on the plot, writing:

"A group of mercenaries are hired to overthrow a Neo-Nazi stronghold nestled deep in the heart of Texas, only to discover they are protecting nuclear codes that could ignite World War III"

'Cyborg' is currently the reigning Bellator women's featherweight champion and the film will mark her third acting role. Following the release of Operation Black Ops, she will appear in Fight Valley 2: Lockdown, which is a sequel to the 2016 film where she made her film debut.
