From 'Sidekicks' to 'Missing in Action' to 'The Delta Force,' Chuck Norris the Movie includes every film needed for the best Sunday movie marathon ever. The clip also includes some of the Norris's TV appearances, giving audiences a look at the film star's charismatic, off-screen personality.
While the film may not be in production yet, the supercut trailer may be enough of a pitch for Hollywood to get the ball rolling.
