First Look Photo at Miles Teller and Aaron Eckhart In BLEED FOR THIS

Here’s your first look at Miles Teller (WHIPLASH) and Aaron Eckhart in BLEED FOR THIS.

Based on the incredible true story of one of boxing’s most charismatic and exciting figures, BLEED FOR THIS centers around Vinny Pazienza (Teller), who quickly shot to stardom when he dominated undefeated champion Gilbert Dele. A near-fatal automobile accident left him with the news that he would never walk again. After months of recovery and against doctors’ orders, Vinny returned to the gym under infamous trainer, Kevin Rooney (Eckhart), and made a triumphant return to the ring just over a year later.

From executive producer and Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese, the film is written and directed by Ben Younger (BOILER ROOM, PRIME).

The producers are Bruce Cohen (AMERICAN BEAUTY, BIG FISH, SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK), Emma Tillinger Koskoff (THE WOLF OF WALL STREET), Ben Younger, Chad Verdi, and Noah Kraft.

The Solution Entertainment Group is handling international rights to the project, which they are selling at the European Film Market.
