“Kino atmosphere” will show in Russia the Studio A24 film “Steel Grip” (in the original – The Iron Claw). The premiere will take place on January 4, 2024. It is reported by “Kinopoisk”.
The film tells the true story of the von Erich dynasty, which influenced the development of wrestling in the United States from the 1960s to the present. In particular, the film is dedicated to the life of Kerry von Erich, who won 40 titles during his career.
In 1986, the athlete was in a motorcycle accident. As a result, he lost his leg. The tragedy did not stop his career as a fighter. He won his last championship belt in 1992, hiding his injury from the public. In the same year, Kerry divorced his wife and in February 1993 he committed suicide due to drug problems and a series of arrests.
The film stars Zac Efron, Harris Dickinson, Holt McCallany, Jeremy Allen White, Maura Tierney, and Lily James. It was directed and written by Sean Durkin and wrestling consultant Chavo Guerrero Jr.
Recall, the company “Inoekino” releases for the first time on the big screens the cult horror “The Ring” directed by Hideo Nakata. This year the film celebrates its 25th anniversary. The sessions will be held in Japanese with Russian subtitles and a new off-screen translation.
