Zac Efron and Jeremy Allen White grapple with tragedy, legacy and history in the first trailer for A24's The Iron Claw, released today. This movie is a true story revolving around the Von Erich family, a legendary wrestling dynasty. Their lives and careers were filled with remarkable successes but also heartbreaking tragedies. The Von Erichs' journey, often compared to that of the Kennedy professional wrestling family, earned them a cursed reputation due to the many trials they endured over the years.
At this time, Kevin, Efron's character in the film, is the only surviving member of this generation. Kevin Von Erich expressed admiration for Efron's commitment, noting that he appeared to have put considerable effort into the film. He also discussed the film's progress with director Sean Durkin.
The Iron Claw also stars Lily James, who recently appeared in Pam and Tommy, along with Harris Dickinson, who recently starred in Where the Crawdads Sing. Holt McCallany (Mindhunter) also appears alongside Maura Tierney (ER), while Durkin (Martha Marcy May Marlene) directs and writes the film with Tessa Ross, Juliette Howell and Angus Lam.
