The movie trailer for Arena’, starring Twilight’s Kellan Lutz and Vampire Diaries actress Nina Dobrev has been rolled out the web, and so far the first look isn’t receiving positive reception.  Many are calling the Jonah Loop directed fight movie and unoriginal rip off of the much loved 2000 movie Gladiator that featured Russell Crowe.  The straight to DVD movie, set for release October 11th, doesn’t look promising.

“David Lord finds himself forced into the savage world of a modern gladiatorial arena, where men fight to the death for the entertainment of the online masses.” 

Synopsis: ‘Arena’ its newest title, after being coined both ‘Deathgames’ and  ‘The Killing Game, chronicles Lutz  in the lead role of David Lloyd, a guy who is forced to fight for the “entertainment of the online masses,” with death the only way out.  The trailer features Samuel L. Jackson as Arena’s fight club organizer, as well as Nina Dobrev playing the part of Kellan’s on-screen wife.  ‘Lost’ actor Daniel Dae Kim is also part of the decent cast lineup that looks to be the only thing going for the flick.
