Amazon MGM Studios has released the trailer for its inspirational biographical wrestling drama Unstoppable, which stars Jennifer Lopez and Jharrel Jerome. This seriously looks like a great movie! I love uplifting sports dramas, and I’m looking forward to watching this!
Unstoppable tells the true story of Anthony Robles (Jerome) “who was born with one leg but whose indomitable spirit and unbreakable resolve empowered him to defy the odds and pursue his dreams.
“With the unwavering love and support of his devoted mother Judy (Lopez), and the encouragement of his coaches, Anthony fights through adversity to earn a spot on the Arizona State Wrestling team.”
The movie was directed by Oscar-winning Argo editor William Goldenberg, who is making his directorial debut. He’s also worked on films such as The Imitation Game, Zero Dark Thirty, Seabiscuit and The Insider. The movie also stars Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña and Don Cheadle.
The movie is based on the book Unstoppable: From Underdog to Undefeated: How I Became a Champion, and the script was adapted by Eric Champnella, Alex Harris and John Hindman.
Robles, the subject of the story, is also in the film and credited as “Anthony Robles Double,” performing wrestling moves and stunts. He is also a producer on the film.
The film will screen in select theaters on December 6th, before coming to Prime Video on Jan. 16, 2025.
