Alex Pereira Features In Action Thriller ‘Onslaught’

UFC star Alex Pereira (13-3) is heading to the big screen, with A24 releasing the trailer for his upcoming film ‘Onslaught’, set for release on September 4.

Pereira plays the role of The Butcher in the action/horror/thriller, which follows a mother living in a trailer park who uses her skills to protect her loved ones from a threat that escaped a secret military base while mercenaries attempt to contain it. Pereira first returns to the octagon on June 14 at UFC Freedom 250, where he faces Ciryl Gane for the interim UFC heavyweight title at the White House. A win makes Pereira the first person in the UFC to hold titles in three weight classes, having won titles at middleweight and light heavyweight.
