The Daily Wire released the official trailer for Run Hide Fight: Infidels, marking the much‑anticipated return of Jonathan Majors to the big screen after a year‑long hiatus caused by legal troubles.

Set in a liberal college campus, the film’s logline describes a scenario where radical Islamic terrorists seize a pro‑Palestine encampment and impose a makeshift caliphate, prompting a rag‑tag group of students, a security guard, and a former Delta Force operative to fight back.

The project, written and directed by Kyle Rankin, echoes the 80s‑90s action‑thriller style of Red Dawn and Toy Soldiers. Production has been turbulent, featuring a on‑set accident that left Majors and co‑star JC Kilcoyne falling through an unsecured window and a brief labor strike.

Beyond the stunt work, the film carries a blunt political message that has drawn criticism. The Los Angeles Times called the premise “xenophobic and Islamophobic,” accusing it of reviving outdated tropes and conspiracy‑laden narratives.

Despite the backlash, the Daily Wire has locked in a September 16 streaming premiere on its platform, positioning the movie as a flagship release for its growing original‑content slate.

Why This Matters
