I Play Rocky is the incredible true story behind one of Hollywood’s most iconic sports movies!

Set in the 1970s, the film follows a young, struggling Sylvester Stallone as he fights to make it as an actor and screenwriter. After years of rejection and financial struggles, Stallone writes a screenplay about an underdog boxer named Rocky Balboa, inspired by an unlikely boxing match between Muhammad Ali and Chuck Wepner.

When Hollywood producers show interest in his script, they offer him opportunities to sell it for a substantial payday. But Stallone has one condition: he has to play Rocky himself. Despite being offered more money to walk away from the starring role, he refuses to give up on his vision.

With limited resources, enormous obstacles, and Hollywood doubting his abilities, Stallone risks everything to bring his story to life.

Starring Anthony Ippolito as Sylvester Stallone, alongside AnnaSophia Robb, Matt Dillon, Toby Kebbell, and Stephan James, the film is directed by Peter Farrelly (Green Book).

At its heart, I Play Rocky is an inspiring underdog story about believing in yourself, refusing to take no for an answer, and fighting for your dreams.

Runtime: 2 hours, 8 minutes | Rated PG-13 | Biographical Drama

Perfect movie-promo angle: Before Rocky became a cultural phenomenon, there was a young actor who had to fight just to get the chance to play him. Now, experience the incredible story of how it all began!
