Via Coming Soon:

Wikipedia describes the plot of David Mamet’s next movie thusly:

The film concerns Mike Terry (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a Jujutsu practitioner and self-defense instructor who imparts upon his students the skills to survive on the street, rather than prevail in sports combat. A series of circumstances brings Terry in contact with popular movie hero Chet Frank (Tim Allen) and a legion of Hollywood movers and shakers. Terry soon finds himself the victim of a con and, combined with a destitute financial situation, is pressed to enter the ring for pride and profit.

Mamet, himself a jujutsu practitioner and UFC aficionado, has described Redbelt as a samurai film in the tradition of Kurosawa.
