00:00The champ is here!
00:04I brought this back for you.
00:06For me?
00:07Anthony Robles is an incredible, triumphant, collegiate wrestler
00:12who is an NCAA Division I champion.
00:15Three miles to the top, gentlemen. Let's go.
00:17Anthony represents exactly what the title of the film is.
00:20Unstoppable. A superhero in real life.
00:23I'll tell you a secret. I only got one leg.
00:26One of the things I've had to deal with is not only self-doubt,
00:29but the doubt of other people, the low expectations,
00:31because I was born missing my leg.
00:33Go, go, go.
00:34Anthony is resilient, incredibly charismatic, and one of a kind.
00:40He really is unstoppable.
00:42Mom, I'll keep wrestling.
00:44Promise me.
00:46I remember meeting you, man. I was intimidated as hell.
00:49I was approached for the role in 2019.
00:51Anthony and I have been going at this for a long time.
00:54Wrestling was my element being on the map.
00:56Seeing you and your craft, just the level of respect that I had for you.
01:00In terms of you being my stunt double, we got to lean on each other.
01:03But when they were shooting you, I'm over here sitting down,
01:06trying to breathe, and then it's cut.
01:08Back to you, back to me.
01:10Being able to do that side-by-side was a beautiful experience.
01:16To tell your story is one thing, but your family's story is another thing.
01:20I wrestled more than just rival schools.
01:22I wrestled with issues off the mat with my family, with my former stepfather.
01:25You got to know your weaknesses, right?
01:26Stop.
01:27Why? He's a man now.
01:29You're going to do great, right? You're going to crush it.
01:31Yeah, you got this.
01:32You got this.
01:33My mom does have a story in her own right,
01:35and Jennifer really wanted to tell that the right way.
01:37I can't believe that you put so much of your heart and soul into it,
01:40and you made me a real person, and I thank you for that.
01:43I'm only here to tell your story in the most real and authentic way.
01:48This is your match, Anthony. Find a way to win.
01:51You will get knocked down. Yes, you will lose.
01:53Yes, you will face doubt, but are you going to stay there, lay on your back,
01:56or are you going to get back up to your feet
01:58and put yourself right back into that wrestling match?
02:00It's not about what you wrestle.
02:02It's about how you react to it, how do you respond,
02:04and just keep moving forward.
