"Samson", New Action-Packed Biblical Epic in Theaters from Feb. 16

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Announcing the official trailer for the highly anticipated biblical epic SAMSON. From Pure Flix, the world's leading independent faith-and-family studio, SAMSON is the thrilling retelling of a champion's calling, betrayal and redemption.

"If you've ever faced adversity and wondered if God was big enough to see you through it, this is your film," says Pure Flix CEO Michael Scott.

The action-packed film stars Billy Zane, Golden Globe® winner Rutger Hauer, Jackson Rathbone, Lindsay Wagner, Caitlin Leahy and Taylor James in the title role of Samson.

Premiering nationwide Feb. 16, SAMSON is based on the powerful, biblical epic of a champion chosen by God to deliver Israel. His supernatural strength and impulsive decisions quickly pit him against the oppressive Philistine empire. After being betrayed by a wicked prince and a beautiful temptress, Samson is captured and blinded by his enemies. Samson calls upon his God once more for supernatural strength and turns imprisonment and blindness into final victory.

Besides the nationwide movie release, DREAM Label Group and Pure Flix Entertainment will release Samson: Songs From and Inspired By the Motion Picture--available Feb. 2.

SAMSON was shot on location in South Africa, directed by Bruce Macdonald and written by Zachary Warren Smith, Jason Baumgardner, Galen Gilbert and Timothy Ratajczak.
