‘Fighting With My Family’ Trailer: Nick Frost, Vince Vaughn, The Rock & More Tell The Story Of WWE’s Paige

It feels as if most films from WWE’s studio tends to focus on one of its wrestlers leading some action film. These films are successful for what they are, but tend to really only be of interest to those WWE fans. However, that’s probably going to change with the new WWE film “Fighting with My Family.” You see, this time, the film features an incredible cast of well-known actors in a story that is equal parts “Rocky” and WWE.

“Fighting with My Family” is the true story of WWE wrestler Paige, played by the incredible Florence Pugh, as she grows up in a wrestling family, led by her clearly insane father and brother. When WWE calls the family to invite Paige and her brother Zak to try out for the wrestling organization, everyone’s elated. Things get thrown for a loop when the WWE wants Paige, but doesn’t have a place for Zak. Oh yeah, and to help provide guidance for Paige, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson shows up in the new trailer for a couple jokes.

“Fighting with My Family” is written and directed by Stephen Merchant, who is probably best known for being the co-creator/writer/director of the British series “The Office.” Since then, he’s worked on a variety of film and TV projects, including “Hot Fuzz,” “Logan,” and the upcoming “Jojo Rabbit.”

Joining Pugh in the cast are Lena Headey, Nick Frost, Jack Lowden, Vince Vaughn, and, of course, Dwayne Johnson.

“Fighting with My Family” hits theaters on February 14, 2019.

Here’s the synopsis:
