Synopsis

The story of a pro wrestling family trying to shake off their curse and make history

The Von Erich family is known as a dynasty. This family of professional wrestlers has dominated the ring from the 1960s onward. They are known for their signature move - the iron claw wrestling hold. In the 1980s, the Von Erich brothers were looking to make their own mark on the sport. But before beating any contender in the ring, they must survive their belligerent father and coach.

Why To Watch The Iron Claw?

Rachel Ulatowski

JustWatch Editor

Perfect for fans of sports dramas and biopics

Those looking for an intense and deeply emotional sports drama will enjoy The Iron Claw. The film tells the tragic true story of the Von Erich family, taking care to tell their story respectfully without sensationalizing their losses. It is further elevated by the brilliant performances of Jeremy Allen White and Zac Efron, with the latter offering up what is undoubtedly a career-best. Viewers will be aware that they're not watching any sports drama but a profoundly moving one that isn't afraid to dive into the good, bad, and ugly of the world of wrestling.
