Georges St-Pierre’s post-UFC career continues to expand.
The former UFC two-division champion has made inroads into the silver screen following his permanent retirement from the sport just weeks after claiming the UFC middleweight title from Michael Bisping in New York in late 2017, appearing in various films like ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’ and ‘Kickboxer: Vengeance.’
More recently though, GSP has filmed sequences for a new Netflix series ‘The Cage,’ which tells the story of a young French fighter (Melvin Boomer) who chases his dream to make it to the big time — and makes some enemies along the way.
In addition to St-Pierre, the film also features cameos from reigning UFC heavyweight champion Jon Jones as well as the man he defeated to claim the then-vacant title, Ciryl Gane — as well as some other notable figures from French MMA, including Morgan Charriere and Taylor Lapilus.
Ahead of the release of the trailer to promote ‘The Cage,’ St-Pierre wrote on social media: “I’m thrilled to finally share with you a project that we’ve been passionately working on with an amazingly talented team! We’ve poured our hearts and souls into this, and it’s almost time to unveil it to the world! Stay tuned!”
Check out the trailer below and you can watch the first episode of the series on Netflix on November 8.
