UPPERCUT: Ving Rhames Returns To The Ring In The New Boxing Drama Coming In February
German actress Luise Großmann gets cast billing here as Luiii for her latest role in boxing drama, Uppercut. She joins Ving Rhames, Jordan E. Cooper, and Joanna Cassidy in the upcoming Lionsgate release.
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.
Uppercut is directed by Torsten Ruether, and arrives on February 28 in theaters, on digital and on Demand. Catch the first trailer below!
