Uppercut – Watch Ving Rhames and Luise Grossmann in the trailer for the new boxing movie

Golden Globe® winner Ving Rhames and Luise Grossmann star in an electrifying film about Toni, a determined female boxer, trying to break down barriers as she redefines 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.

Written and directed by Torsten Ruether, the film stars Ving Rhames, Luiii, Jordan E. Cooper, and Joanna Cassidy.

In US cinemas, On Digital and On Demand from 28th February 2025.
