Way late to the party on this one, but here is the trailer for The Iron Claw, a biopic about the Von Erich wrestling family. Here is the synopsis:
The true story of the inseparable Von Erich brothers, who make history in the intensely competitive world of professional wrestling in the early 1980s. Through tragedy and triumph, under the shadow of their domineering father and coach, the brothers seek larger-than-life immortality on the biggest stage in sports.
If you are a wrestling fan, you've heard of the Von Erichs. If you've heard of the Von Erichs, then you know what kind of movie this is going to be. Not trying to spoil this movie at all, but it might be a tough watch. I do wonder if they will cover every tragic thing that happened to that family, or is there some stuff that is too dark to put on screen? Regardless, after seeing this trailer, I am all in on watching this one. It looks incredible, actually! Also cool that current AEW wrestler (and, as of this writing, world champion) MJF has a role in this, too!
The Iron Claw comes out in theaters December 22, 2023.
