Unfightable’ Makes World Television Premiere on ViX and Fuse this October

 LOS ANGELES and NEW YORK, August 26, 2024—Latino-owned Fuse Media, the global leader in inclusive entertainment and La Jaula Studios revealed today the official trailer of the ViX original documentary ‘Unfightable.’ From Emmy® Award-Winning director and producer Marc J. Perez (Severe ClearAnytown USA) and La Jaula Studios, Unfightable is the extraordinary story of Alana McLaughlin, a distinguished U.S. Army Special Forces Sergeant and transgender athlete fighting for control of her life and her narrative by competing as a professional MMA fighter.

Unfightable will make its theatrical debut with a one-week run in New York beginning September 13 at the Village East Theater, followed by a week-long run in Los Angeles at Laemmle Noho 7. The documentary will make its exclusive world television premiere for Spanish language audiences on ViX, the leading Spanish-language streaming service in the world, and in English on Fuse, in the coming months.

Unfightable chronicles the journey of Alana McLaughlin, a transgender woman venturing into the world of MMA, an arena notorious for its challenges and biases against transgender athletes. From a difficult upbringing to serving in the US Special Forces, Alana's path led her to transition and discover a supportive community in Portland, Ore. Having fought battles throughout her life, she now sets her sights on professional fighting. Unfightable is a powerful narrative that highlights the importance of transgender athletes' right to compete professionally and the remarkable bravery it takes to assert one's true identity.
