Synopsis

THE FIST was one of the hottest action stars of the 1980s. But with the ’90s came the death of the action hero, and with that, The Fist disappeared.
Now, martial arts superstar JERRY ‘THE LEGEND’ LEWIS is making a name for himself, but he remains jealous of the immortalized Fist, who absented himself in his prime, like Bruce Lee. So Legend decides to prove he is the better fighter, by holding a tournament to bring The Fist out of hiding, and to defeat him once and for all. And if Fist won’t show up for the fight, Legend will replace him with a remake: The ‘New’ Fist.
Fist, now living with two guys in a one-bedroom apartment and working at a bagel shop, refuses to join in Legend’s tournament. But after the death of his master and the urging of his father, Fist steps back into the limelight. In the process, he finds THE DRAGON (and his inner ‘glow’) to reclaim his stardom.
