The Black Belt will reportedly center around a shy, unassuming teen boy on a quest for expertise in karate, and the unorthodox uncle who guides him along the way. On top of starring, Pratt will also be serving as a producer through his Indivisible Productions.

The film will be produced by Monarch Media’s Steve Barnett and Alan Powell along with Indivisible’s Jon Schumacher. It will be executive produced by Monarch’s Vicky Patel with UTA Independent Film Group to oversee the film’s sales and distribution.
