I Play Rocky

Release date: November 6, 2026

The real story behind the movie Rocky.
An unknown actor had an unbreakable dream that he wasn’t only supposed to write Rocky—he was supposed to star in it as Rocky Balboa.
Even though everyone said no, Sylvester Stallone put all his faith in himself. He wouldn’t back down from playing the lead role, no matter how hard things got. What happened next is the coolest underdog story ever told about how an underdog movie got made.
