Black Bear Pictures has premiered the official trailer for “Christy” which recently launched at the Toronto Film Festival and opens in cinemas on November 7th.
Based on remarkable true events, biopic follows Christy Martin (Sydney Sweeney) who never imagined life beyond her small-town roots in West Virginia – until she discovered a knack for punching people.
Fueled by grit, raw determination, and an unshakable desire to win, she charges into the world of boxing under the guidance of her trainer and manager-turned-husband, Jim (Ben Foster).
But while Christy flaunts a fiery persona in the ring in the 1990s, her toughest battles unfold outside it – confronting family, identity, and a relationship that just might become life-or-death.
Ben Foster, Merritt Wever, Katy O’Brian, Ethan Embry, Chad L. Coleman and Tony Cavalero co-star.
David Michôd directs and co-writes the film with Mirrah Foulkes. Michod, Sweeney, Kerry Kohansky-Roberts, Teddy Schwarzman, Brent Stiefel and Justin Lothrop produce.
