Lionsgate has revealed that
Fighting With My Family, the Paige biopic written, executive produced and directed by Emmy, BAFTA and Golden Globe award winner Stephen Merchant, will be released on Digital Download on June 24th and on DVD and Blu-ray on July 1st.
Inspired by the Channel 4 documentary The Wrestlers: Fighting With My Family, the movie tells the story of reformed gangster and former wrestler Ricky, his wife Julia, daughter Saraya and son Zak who make a living performing in tiny venues across the country. Ricky and Julia want a better life for their children and when brother and sister get the chance to audition for WWE, it seems the family dream is coming true and all their troubles will be solved.
However, Saraya and Zak are about to learn that becoming a WWE Superstar demands more than they ever imagined possible as athletes and siblings. Wrestling has always kept this family together -- but now it could tear them apart. It's a fantastic movie and one that should be enjoyed by wrestling and non-wrestling fans alike.
It's also been revealed that the special features will include:
-
Deleted & Extended Scenes
-
Gag Reel
-
A Family’s Passion: The Making Of
-
Learning the Moves
-
Feature Commentary with Stephen Merchant
