I just saw the trailer for Uppercut and I’m already hooked! This movie looks like a powerful and inspiring story about a young woman who’s determined to break down barriers in the world of boxing.

Golden Globe® winner Ving Rhames and Luise Grossmann star in this film about Toni, a determined female boxer trying to redefine what it means to be a woman in today’s world. When Elliott (Rhames), a tough ex-boxing champion, accepts the challenge to train Toni (Grossmann), the two mismatched characters form an unlikely alliance. Their sparring and Elliott’s keen insights show the resilient young fighter that real strength comes from the challenges you overcome when life throws its biggest punches your way.

Uppercut hits theaters, on demand, and on digital beginning Feb. 28, 2025, from Lionsgate. I can’t wait to see it!
