Bringing to the screen the extraordinary true story of gentle giant mixed martial arts and UFC fighter champion Mark Kerr, as he faces up to the demons of the sport and within himself, portrayed with sincere, raw vulnerability by a transformative Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, alongside his devoted partner Dawn (Emily Blunt).
Going solo as a director after collaborating with his brother Josh, to much acclaim, on the likes of Good Time and Uncut Gems, this is a stunning, raw biographical drama – and a surefire contender for next year’s awards season – which will connect with both fans of the sport and newcomers alike.
