Ketcher: Origins

By Mark Kaufman

Ketcher: Origins introduces us to Doc, an assassin and a hard-luck gambler, whose desperation drives him to take a last-chance bet. He wagers what little he has on a bare-knuckle fighter named Ketcher, a monstrous brawler who fights out of a grim basement ring in Morocco. The gamble pays off -- both as a surprise win and as a turning point in Doc's dark life.
Impressed by Ketcher's raw power, spiked with grit and brutality, Doc offers him a dangerous deal: join him, and turn his basement-fist fights into something much bigger. As the pact unfolds, Doc & Ketcher are drawn deeper into a violent underworld, where fighting isn't just for money but for survival, reputation, and control. Ketcher must decide how far he's willing to go, and who he is once the crowd stops cheering.
The tone is brutal, sharp, and cinematic: think Reservoir Dogs meets John Wick. It's a story about broken men, unlikely alliances, and how one fight can redefine everything. Ketcher: Origins isn't just about brawls -- it's about the cost of violence, both physical and moral, when ambition and desperation collide.
