‘Unstoppable’: Read The Screenplay For The Inspirational Sports Drama That Pins Down What It Takes To Be A Champion


Unstoppable, the inspirational sports drama directed by Oscar-winning Argo editor William Goldenberg, stars Jharrel Jerome and Jennifer Lopez.

Jerome plays Robles, with the story focused on the obstacles faced by he and his mother Judy (played by Lopez) as Anthony overcame a difficult childhood to pursue his dreams, eventually winning the 2021 national title for Arizona State by beating a wrestler from national powerhouse Iowa — the same school that had rejected him earlier in his college career. Jerome spent months training Robles learning the craft of wresting; ultimately, the wrestling scenes in the film feature both men. Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña and Don Cheadle also starred in the pic helmed by Goldenberg, who counts five Oscar editing nominations including for another inspirational sports film, Seabiscuit, in addition to The Insider, Zero Dark Thirty and The Imitation Game.
