The Protector is the highly anticipated full bodied action film starring International Martial Arts superstar, Tony Jaa (Ong Bak). The film revolves around a young Thai fighter (Jaa), who is shaped by ancient traditions, that is called to defend his people and their honor after outsiders ruin all that is sacred. Fueled by desire to protect a way of life and avenge the wrong done to his family, he will bring the fight to their city.
The release date for the film is August 25, 2006.
I noticed the posting in Reader Feedback asking if The Protector is the same film as Tom yum goong (Ong Bak 2), and yes it is the same movie.
