Fighting With My Family (2019)
Based on a true story, Fighting With My Family follows reformed gangster Ricky (Nick Frost from Shaun of the Dead), wife Julia (Lena Headey, aka Cersei in Game of Thrones), daughter Paige (2020 Oscar nominee Florence Pugh from Little Women, Midsommar) and son Zak (2020 BAFTA Rising Star Award nominee Jack Lowden from Dunkirk) as they make a living wrestling together in tiny venues.
When Paige and Zak get the opportunity to try out for WWE, the family grabs a once-in-a-lifetime chance to turn their wildest dreams into a dazzling future. However, brother and sister quickly discover that to become superstars, both their talent and their relationship will be put to the test. Fighting With My Family is a heartwarming and smart comedy that proves everything is worth fighting for when it comes to family.
Also starring People’s Choice winners Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Vince Vaughn, Fighting With My Family has a 93% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says, “Much like the sport it celebrates, Fighting with My Family muscles past clichés with a potent blend of energy and committed acting that should leave audiences cheering.”
Fighting With My Family has won 10 international awards, including Best Family Film from Las Vegas Film Critics Society Awards.
