UNSTOPPABLE
Born without a right leg, Anthony Robles' journey is nothing short of inspirational. Growing up in a challenging household, he never gave up on his dream of becoming a professional wrestler. Despite being the only disabled athlete on his US Division 1 college wrestling team, Robles pushed himself to earn his spot and compete at the highest level. Unstoppable captures his incredible rise, both on and off the mat, as he faces physical and emotional challenges.
Jharrel Jerome, known for his stellar performances in Moonlight and When They See Us, steps into the role of Robles, delivering another powerful performance that anchors the film.
Fans of sports dramas like Rudy or The Blind Side will find a lot to love here, but Unstoppable stands out for its focus on disability and accessibility, bringing a fresh perspective to the genre. Robles' real-life advocacy for accessibility is woven into the film, making it not just a story of athletic triumph but also a powerful message of inclusion and resilience.
