Blumhouse Television and Netflix have teamed up for a new martial arts action drama, Absolute Dominion, which has concluded production in Las Vegas, Nevada. Here’s a rundown of everything we know so far about the upcoming movie written and directed by Lexi Alexander. Here’s a rundown of what you can expect from the feature film: “Set in 2085, Absolute Dominion centers on a world that has nearly been destroyed by religious terrorism where cities in countries all over the world have been annihilated. Desperate for a solution to save humanity, the United Nations votes to implement a concept created by a popular internet comedian called The Battle Of Absolute Dominion. All qualifying belief systems will send one representative to compete in a martial arts tournament, the last fighter standing wins absolute dominion for one faith.” Who’s behind the Absolute Dominion on Netflix? Lexi Alexander is leading the production. The Palestinian-American writer/director is also known for her achievements in the world of kickboxing where she was crowned champion. Alexander’s previous credits include Green Street Hooligans, Marvel’s Punisher: War Zone, and Lifted. Jason Blum of Blumhouse Television is producing the movie.
