Unstoppable, the upcoming sports biopic starring Jharrel Jerome is coming to Prime Video on January 16 after a limited release in theaters last month, giving those who missed out the chance to enjoy such a fascinating watch. As fans know, the streaming giant has already dropped a couple of teasers, including images and an official trailer last year, but ahead of the film’s streaming release, we now have another trailer, showing the lead character proving to the world that anything is possible.
“I’m running out of time to be someone,” the trailer begins with Jerome’s words to Michael Peña, who portrays his coach Bobby Williams. The actor who portrays Anthony Robles is then seen showcasing his wrestling prowess on the mat before Jennifer Lopez, who stars as Robles’ mother, tells him, “Dreamers are only as big as the dream they chase.” Further into the clip, Jerome’s character is unstoppable as he puts in every effort to attain his goal of being a wrestling champ despite the challenges he encounters along the way.
In addition to the trailer, Amazon MGM Studios has announced a one-night-only fan screening event scheduled for Wednesday, January 8. The company will host special free screenings of Unstoppable in theatres in the top 85 U.S. markets as a sneak peek for fans ahead of its Prime Video release the following week.
