Legend Packs September with ‘Rambo’, ‘Zorro’ and ‘Conan’ Premieres

LEGEND is setting the stage for an adrenaline-heavy September with a run of fifteen channel premieres, featuring some of the biggest names in action, thrillers and cult favourites. Spanning martial arts showdowns, apocalyptic battles, high-stakes crime capers and historical epics, the line-up promises an unrelenting month of cinematic spectacle.

Opening the month on 4 September is Kickboxer (1989), the Jean-Claude Van Damme classic in which vengeance meets Muay Thai discipline. Two days later, Matthew McConaughey and Christian Bale face winged devastation in Reign of Fire (2002), a post-apocalyptic dragon thriller. Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones bring swashbuckling flair to The Mask of Zorro (1998) on 7 September.

Sam Worthington takes desperate measures in Man on a Ledge (2011) on 9 September, while Nicolas Cage goes pedal-to-the-metal in supernatural revenge ride Drive Angry (2010) on 11 September. Sylvester Stallone’s uncompromising Rambo (2008) storms in on 13 September, followed by Denzel Washington and Angelina Jolie in serial killer pursuit drama The Bone Collector (1999) on 14 September.

Steven Seagal returns to his action roots in Marked for Death (1990) on 18 September, ahead of the Jason Statham–Jet Li face-off in War (2007) on 19 September. Billy Bob Thornton, Dennis Quaid and Jason Patric unite for the historical war drama The Alamo (2004) on 20 September, while Keanu Reeves and Morgan Freeman star in tech-thriller Chain Reaction (1996) on 21 September.

Chris Evans and Dakota Fanning battle psychic warfare in Push (2009) on 23 September, leading into a weeknight run of Charlie’s Angels Season Two from 25 September, with Cheryl Ladd joining Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith. That evening also sees Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston in the action-comedy The Bounty Hunter (2010).

Jason Momoa takes the sword in Conan the Barbarian (2011) on 27 September, with the month closing on Mel Gibson in the Vietnam War epic We Were Soldiers (2001) on 28 September.

With its mix of martial arts classics, explosive modern thrillers and large-scale historical dramas, LEGEND’s September line-up brings a cinematic punch to the small screen, pairing recognisable stars with high-octane set-pieces every week. You’ll be hard pressed to find better movies than this on any other channels on Freeview.
