In the trailer, fans can catch a glimpse of the scenes filmed at UFC 285. In the film, Gyllenhaal plays former UFC fighter Elwood Dalton. Due to unfortunate circumstances, he is forced to take up a job working security at an establishment in the Florida Keys.
The rest of the plot revolves around Dalton's escapades. The trailer also gives fans a look at McGregor's character, who makes an appearance towards the end of the trailer. If the trailer is anything to go by, McGregor appears to be playing an antagonistic role, as he can be seen creating problems for Gyllenhaal's character in the trailer.
