The Condemned is a thriller film directed and written by Scott Wiper, and starring Stone Cold Steve Austin along with Vinnie Jones. The fights are co-ordinated by Richard Norton, who also stunt doubles for Jones on some scenes. The movie is being produced by WWE Films and released by Lions Gate Films.

The story revolves around a criminal (played by Austin) on death row in a Central American prison where he is "purchased" by a TV producer who is putting together a show where 10 contestants battle to the death for a TV show on a remote island." Hunted down by ruthless killers, his only shot at survival, and victory, is to hunt down and kill the nine other contestants. From reports, it has a Running Man feel to the plot and action.
