Southpaw
Release Date: TBA
Kurt Sutter, the brilliant brain behind FX’s Sons Of Anarchy, is bringing his brand of pain and retribution to the big screen in Southpaw. The upcoming sports drama stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Rachel McAdams, Naomie Harris, Forest Whitaker, and Tyrese Gibson. The film is a metaphorical narrative of the second chapter of rapper Eminem’s life from the 8 Mile story. In it, Gyllenhaal plays Billy Hope, a struggling left-handed boxer who fights his way to the top, only to discover his life apart all around him. With a rich story stemming from one of Hip-Hop’s greats, a stellar cast and a raw and honest look at the boxing world, movie fans will be endeared by this spiritual successor to Rocky.
