Classified is now available for digital/on-demand viewing. Dutch filmmaker Roel Reiné launched his career in his native Netherland with the 1999 award-winning thriller The Delivery before making a name for himself directing a slew of DTV sequels from 2009-2016, including 12 Rounds 2: Reloaded, SEAL Team 8: Behind Enemy Lines, The Condemned 2, Death Race 2, Death Race 3: Inferno, Hard Target 2, The Man With the Iron Fists 2, The Marine 2, and The Scorpion King 3: Battle for Redemption.
