Child-trafficking drama 'City of Dreams' aims to 'wake people up,' says EP Tony Robbins

A year after "Sound of Freedom" shook up Hollywood's summer box office and prompted a call to action against child trafficking, "City of Dreams" aims to call attention to the same issue.

Life and business coach Tony Robbins, an executive producer of the film, and director Mohit Ramchandani appeared Wednesday on "Jesse Watters Primetime" to detail their hope the film will serve as a "call to action" and "wake people up." Joshua Comins is an associate editor for Fox News Digital. 

"On the previous film, ‘Sound of Freedom’… we had the same situation," Robbins said. "You know, on July 4th weekend last year, we beat out Disney with all their money because people were so moved by the film. And my wife and I have been involved in this for eight years. It's not a side-hustle for us that we do. We've freed a little more than 50,000 children."  He covers media, politics, breaking news and current events. 

"We funded the freedom of them, and we've actually gone out on those. I've gone undercover with scars on my face — the ugliest things you could ever imagine in your life happening to our children, but also the beauty is when they're freed," Robbins said.  Story tips can be sent to joshua.comins@fox.com.
