Ice Cube and Charlie Day headline the Fist Fight movie, a comedy directed by Richie Keen from a script by Evan Susser and Van Robichaux. The story follows Charlie Day’s character, a meek teacher, as he is challenged to a fist fight by his much tougher colleague, played by Ice Cube. Christina Hendricks will play a school drama teacher, who has a romantic connection to the teacher played by Ice Cube.

“The truth of the matter is at this public high school on a very chaotic day, neither of their philosophies are working,” Keen tells USA Today. “And this fight becomes a bigger metaphor for the system and things needing to change.”

The Fist Fight movie is also set to mark the big screen return of actor/comedian Tracy Morgan. Hospitalized after a tragic traffic accident on the New Jersey Turnpike in 2014, Morgan is finally beginning to return to work. He will play a coach at the school.
