Jon Jones and Georges St-Pierre star in new Netflix MMA series

Not only are they two of the very best fighters to ever grace the sport of mixed martial arts, but Jon Jones and Georges St-Pierre are also budding movie stars.

Fans consistently add the two MMA legends to the Mount Rushmore of the sport. Throughout their careers inside the cage, Jones and GSP have a combined record of 53-3 — with most of those victories coming against top-level opponents.

As the sport continues to grow, more and more people have begun paying attention, leading to more opportunities for the fighters. That is the case with Netflix’s new series ‘The Cage’ which features several UFC stars.

23-year-old Melvin Boomer stars as Taylor — a young martial artist who dreams of one day being immortalized in the UFC.

As he struggles with personal and family matters, Taylor pounces on an opportunity that spurs the beginning of a huge rivalry.

To overcome the many challenges that lie ahead, the aspiring prospect seeks the help of some notable faces.

Alongside the aforementioned Jon Jones and Georges St-Pierre, ‘The Cage’ will feature former UFC heavyweight title challenger Ciryl Gane.

Unlike Jon Jones, this isn’t the first acting assignment of Georges St-Pierre and Ciryl Gane’s career.

St-Pierre most notably played a significant role in Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The UFC Hall-of-Famer portrayed villain Georges Batroc, which remains his biggest role on the big screen.

Ciryl Gane has too had some success on television, starring in both Medellin and The Misadventures of Hedi and Cokeman. 

As well as his role in the upcoming MMA series, fans can expect to see Gane in a much bigger project. The Frenchman has been confirmed to feature alongside Gerard Butler, 50 Cent, and more in Den of Thieves 2, set to release sometime in 2025.
