by

In the highly-anticipated action thriller “Diablo,” two standout actors from the fourth installment of the “John Wick” series, known as Killa Harkan and Chidi, are back together on set. Previously, they shared the screen with Keanu Reeves in “John Wick: Chapter 4.” Killa Harkan portrayed the flamboyant Killa Harkan, the leader of the German Table, while Chidi was cast as the powerful enforcer Chidi under Bill Skarsgård’s Marquis Vincent Bisset de Gramont. This time around, they join forces once more to deliver an action-packed performance in a story revolving around kidnapping, organized crime, redemption, and a ruthless assassin. Here’s your first look at “Diablo” below.

Scott Adkins recently posted on social media an exciting new image with the question that action enthusiasts everywhere have been eagerly waiting to hear: “Are you all set for the top martial arts action movie of 2025?!” The actor inquired. Without a doubt, the response is a thrilled “Yes, please.” Here’s the official summary for the film titled Diablo…

Following his release from prison, Kris Chaney (Scott Adkins) initiates a hazardous journey to keep an old vow, however, trouble ensues when he abducts Elisa, the child of a formidable crime boss. Her father, Vicente, broadcasts a message to the entire criminal network demanding her safe return. El Corvo (Marko Zaror), a merciless assassin, gets involved in the pursuit not for financial gain but to settle a personal score against Vicente’s kin. Kris needs to elude both Elisa’s powerful father and a bloodthirsty killer seeking vengeance if he hopes to stay alive long enough to reveal to Elisa the full truth that has been concealed from her.

Could ‘Diablo’ Really Be the Best Action Movie of 2025?

In this image, two formidable action actors engage in an intense confrontation, promising a thrilling battle. Scott Adkins embodies the quintessential action hero, delivering a powerful kick to his adversary’s face, while Zaror presents a markedly different appearance compared to his John Wick character, sporting a shaved head and a single glove – a clear indication of his villainous role.

In Diablo, Scott Adkins teams up with Marko Zaror once again, having previously acted together in Undisputed 3: Redemption, Savage Dog, and the final installment of Baba Yaga. The film is directed by Ernesto Díaz Espinoza, who has previously collaborated with Marko Zaror on Redeemer and The Fist of the Condor. Diablo’s script is penned by Mat Sansom and features Diana Hoyos (Sniper: Ultimate Kill, Oye Bonita, Nurses) and Alana De La Rossa as Elisa in key roles.

Scott Adkins has been a hidden gem in the realm of action films, and it’s probably with “John Wick: Chapter 4” that many viewers will first get to witness his talents. Known for movies such as the “Undisputed” series, “Doctor Strange,” “The Expendables 2,” “Universal Soldier: Day of Reckoning,” “Accident Man,” “Day Shift,” “One Shot,” and “The Killer’s Game,” Adkins is set to join forces with fellow action star Jean-Claude Van Damme again for the reboot sequel of “Kickboxer,” titled “Kickboxer: Armageddon.
