Bleed for This
The trailer for the movie "Bleed for This" starring Miles Teller as Vinny Pazienza, is out, having been released by Verdi Productions on Wednesday afternoon.
"This Film is the real deal and has real legs. It's up to the viewers to decide how great the film is. It's the best movie I have ever produced and Vinny's story speaks for itself. It's the greatest comeback in sports history," said movie producer Chad Verdi.
The movie will open in limited release on November 4 before the big release on November 23.
"We will premiere in La And NY the first week in November and hopefully in RI soon after that. I want the RI premiere at Twin River Casino since we did a lot of filming there and they deserve to be part of this," Verdi added.
