Michael Bay brings us 6 Underground based on the premise:

What’s the best part of being dead?

  • It isn’t escaping your boss or ex or deleting your criminal record.
  • The best part about being dead is the freedom.
  • The freedom to fight the injustice and evil that lurk in our world with no one or anything to slow you down or tell you “no.”

With Bay’s classic style, 6 Underground introduces a new action hero—six individuals, each the very best in their field, from around the globe.
