Sean Mullin Executive Produces THE FIGHT TO FIGHT
THE FIGHT TO FIGHT team is thrilled to announce award-winning filmmaker Sean Mullin has come aboard as Executive Producer to guide the film through the complex distribution process to ensure it maximizes reach and impact with audiences.
Mullin is not only an experienced filmmaker with several prominent films under his belt, but he is also a 1997 graduate of West Point. During his time as an active duty artillery officer, he was based in Germany, and while in the National Guard, he was stationed at Ground Zero to serve as a first responder after the attacks of September 11th.
Today, Mullin is a founder of Five By Eight Productions and a busy filmmaker. As a director and writer, his character-driven feature films include Amira & Sam and Semper Fi. His documentaries include It Ain’t Over, about the life and career of New York Yankee hall-of-famer Yogi Berra, and Brothers on Three, which follows a West Point rugby team defending its national championship. (For more information about Mullin click here.)
Mullin brings a wealth of experience to THE FIGHT TO FIGHT team in the critical area of selecting the right players and strategy to help maximize the film’s marketing, promotion and distribution efforts. The independent film industry is experiencing major disruptions today making it extremely challenging to get a documentary shown to a wide audience.
Although Mullin has multiple projects of his own in the works, he has made a huge impact on our upcoming fall screening plan and been a major contributor to our overall release strategy as we prepare for our 2027 official premiere.

To help honor Veterans Day and draw attention to important issues currently affecting the military, THE FIGHT TO FIGHT is set to be featured in four private screenings: Los Angeles, the Berkshires in Massachusetts, and two in New York. Several other screenings in New York and Washington are also in the works, and we hope to firm them up soon.
