<p>The film revolves around the life of wrestler Anthony Robles (Jerome), who was born with one leg and went on to win a national championship in 2011 while competing at Arizona State University.</p>
<p>Lopez portrays Anthony's mother, Judy, while Bobby Cannavale plays his father Rick. Michael Pena, who plays coach Bobby Williams, and Don Cheadle, who plays wrestling coach Shawn Charles, complete the cast.</p>
<p>"Anthony Robles, despite being born without a right leg, rises to become a NCAA Division 1 Champion wrestler ultimately winning a national championship against the school that rejected him, national powerhouse Iowa," the film's official synopsis reads.</p>
<p>'Unstoppable' was produced by Lopez's husband <strong><a href="https://www.mid-day.com/entertainment/hollywood-news/article/ben-affleck-jennifer-garner-spotted-together-in-california-23319487" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Ben Affleck </a></strong>via the production company he shares with Matt Damon, Artists Equity.

<p>The biopic, based on Robles and Murphy's book 'Unstoppable: From Underdog to Undefeated: How I Became a Champion', is set to make its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September. Then it will hit select theatres in December, according to The Hollywood Reporter.</p>
