What To Know About Iron Claw
The Iron Claw, as depicted in official summaries, focuses on the influential rise of the Von Erichs, whose impact on professional wrestling transcends decades, from the 1960s to the present day. This influence extends to wrestlers' presentation and performance, including the renowned Ric Flair, who is also featured in the film. However, the Von Erichs' lives were marked by tragedy. Kevin, portrayed by Efron, is the sole surviving son of Fritz Von Erich (played by Holt McCallany from Mindhunter). Regrettably, three of Fritz's sons, including Kerry (White) and Mike (portrayed by Stanley Simons from Mesage Not Received), tragically died by suicide. Additionally, David Von Erich (played by Harris Dickinson from The King's Man) succumbed to illness, while Fritz's firstborn, Jack Jr., tragically died in an accidental drowning incident. Lily James, known for her role in Downton Abbey, appears in the film as Kevin's wife Pam.
In his first significant role in a film, MJF, a beloved figure among AEW fans, portrays Lance Von Erich who is unrelated to the Von Erichs and is simply portraying a character. Maura Tierney, known for her role in "The Affair," takes on the role of Doris Von Erich, the matriarch of the family. With a winter release date, the esteemed reputation of A24, and the director Sean Durkin's success in previous works like "Martha Marcy May Marlene" starring Elizabeth Olsen, the distressing tale of this troubled family has the potential of attracting awards attention and intensifying the excitement surrounding "The Iron Claw."
