I grew up on the Rocky movies. Now, I was a kid who didn’t like boxing. I also didn’t understand how my parents told me that violence was never good but they got into these movies. But, that being said, the Rocky movies were interesting to me.
Sylvester Stallone was interesting to me. Even with his other roles that he had in life I could never really not call him Rocky. And now, we have a film about the time that the actor bet on himself. The trailer for I Play Rocky debuted.
The movie, “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.”
Starring Anthony Ippolito, Matt Dillon, AnnaSophia Robb, P.J. Byrne, Toby Kebbell, Tracy Letts, Jay Duplass, Stephan James, and Kiki Seto I Play Rocky hits theaters November 6.
