Christy: Story And Cast
Swipe Left For Next Video
As per the official synopsis, “Christy Martin (Sydney Sweeney) never imagined life beyond her small-town roots in West Virginia—until she discovered a knack for punching people. Fueled by grit, raw determination and an unshakable desire to win, she charges into the world of boxing under the guidance of her trainer and manager-turned-husband, Jim (Ben Foster). But while Christy flaunts a fiery persona in the ring, her toughest battles unfold outside it—confronting family, identity and a relationship that just might become life-or-death."
Other than Sydney Sweeney in the lead role, Christy also features Ben Foster as Christy's abusive husband, Katy O'Brien steps into the shoes of Lisa Holewyne, Christy's former rival turned lover, Merritt Wever as her mother and Chad L Coleman will be seen as boxing promoter Don King.
