SOUTHPAW opens Friday, July 24! Enter to Win Passes to the St. Louis Advance Screening!

Enter for your chance to receive a pass for two to a special advance screening!

From acclaimed director Antoine Fuqua (TRAINING DAY) and starring Academy Award® nominated Jake Gyllenhaal (NIGHTCRAWLER, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN) comes a story of tragedy, loss and the painful road to redemption… Billy “The Great” Hope (Gyllenhaal) is the reigning Junior Middleweight Champion whose unorthodox stance, the so-called “Southpaw,” consists of an ineloquent, though brutal, display of offensive fighting… one fueled by his own feelings of inadequacy and a desperate need for love, money and fame. With a beautiful family, home and financial security, Billy is on top both in and out of the ring until a tragic accident leaves his wife dead and sends him into a downward spiral.

Cast: Beau Knapp, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Forest Whitaker, Jake Gyllenhaal, Naomie Harris, Oona Laurence, Rachel McAdams, Rita Ora, Victor Ortiz
Director: Antoine Fuqua
