An Open Road Films release, Bleed for This tells the incredible true story of one of the most inspiring and unlikely comebacks in sports history.

After a near-fatal car accident leaves Vinny with a broken neck, he is told he may never walk again. Against all odds and doctor’s orders, renowned trainer Kevin Rooney (Eckhart) agrees to help Vinny return to the ring just a year after the accident for what could be the last fight of his life.

The Bleed for This movie cast also includes Ted Levine, Ciaran Hinds, Jordan Gelber and Amanda Clayton. The film was produced by Younger with Bruce Cohen, Emma Tillinger Koskoff, Chad Verdi and Noah Kraft with Martin Scorsese, Myles Nestel and Lisa Wilson as executive producers.
