‘When they see you they don’t see someone who is missing a leg, they see someone who is unstoppable. You can show them that anything is possible,’ adds scene stealer Lopez.

Though Lopez is a major highlight in the film, the lead role is about the wrestler.
He was born in Arizona and wants to become the biggest wrestler in the world.
‘Why do you wrestle?’ asks Anthony’s coach Bobby Williams, played by Michael Peña, in the trailer.
‘When people look at me the first thing they see is what’s missing,’ replies Jerome’s Anthony. ‘If I win, having one leg won’t be the most important thing about me.’
