You don’t have to be a boxing fan to appreciate Rocky, it’s a classic film. It was Stallone’s acting debut, he also wrote the script and it wasn’t about the boxing. The 1976 film is considered an underdog story, a struggling young man who wanted to be a big time boxer. A personal redemption story of dignity, respect and a love story…Adrian!!!
This film promises to document Stallone’s struggles getting into Hollywood. Never give up on the dream and believing in your project.
The film also stars Matt Dillon, AnnaSophia Robb, P.J. Byrne, Toby Kebbell, Tracy Letts, Jay Duplass, Stephan James, and Kiki Seto.
Synopsis | The film is an electrifying true story about an unknown actor with an unshakable belief that he wasn’t just meant to write Rocky—he was meant to be Rocky Balboa. Told “no” at every turn, Sylvester Stallone bets everything on himself, holding the line on playing the lead against seemingly impossible odds. The result is the ultimate underdog story behind the ultimate underdog movie.
I Play Rocky will be released in UK and Irish cinemas by Entertainment Film Distributors on 6th November (Amazon MGM Studios in the U.S the same day).
