Alan Delabie returns to his signature role of Alex Lapierre in the trailer to the upcoming prequel The Shepherd Code: Lapierre.

Lewis enlists his top agent, Alex Lapierre – aka “The Shepherd” – for a mission that’s as high-stakes as it is dangerous: eliminate a list of targets for Tania Edwards, a powerful and enigmatic woman tangled in a massive scandal. But things quickly take an unexpected turn. A mysterious bounty hunter, known only as “The Ghost,” enters the picture with a very different agenda: to take out both Tania and Alex, but on whose behalf? Caught between the conflicting demands of his superiors and his own growing doubts, Alex faces a tough decision: follow orders and remain the loyal soldier he’s trained to be, or be swayed by Tania’s allure and question everything he believes in.

Joining Delabie are kickboxing legend Don “The Dragon” Wilson, Patrick Kilpatrick, Lee Arenberg, and Eric Roberts.

The film is directed by LM Chambat and Delabie. The film will be out later this year from ITN Distribution.
