The Iron Claw, a pro wrestling biopic, now available on demand

The Iron Claw movie

The recently released family drama, The Iron Claw, is now available to stream on demand from the comfort of your own home. Starring acclaimed actors Zac Efron, Jeremy Allen White, Harris Dickinson, and others, this pro wrestling biopic can be purchased in stunning 4K Ultra HD from platforms like Prime Video and Apple TV. While still enjoying a theatrical run, The Iron Claw has already made its digital debut, giving fans the opportunity to delve into its compelling story.

Distributed by A24, The Iron Claw is expected to be added to the streaming service Max once its current theatrical run concludes. In a significant move for Warner Bros. Discovery, they have signed a deal with A24 to include the distributor's theatrical releases, such as Priscilla, Dream Scenario, Dicks: The Musical, and more, on their streaming platform in 2024. This means that The Iron Claw will likely be available for streaming on Max sometime in April or May. However, if you can't wait to watch it, the film is already available for digital purchase in 4K Ultra HD on Prime Video, Apple TV, and other video-on-demand platforms for $20.

Written and directed by Sean Durkin, The Iron Claw takes audiences on a journey into the lives of the Von Erich brothers—Kevin (played by Zac Efron), Kerry (played by Jeremy Allen White), and David (played by Harris Dickinson). This trio of professional wrestlers, along with their controlling father and coach, Fritz (played by Holt McCallany), strive for greatness on wrestling's grandest stage during the early '80s. The film also features stellar performances from Maura Tierney, Lily James, Michael J. Harney, Maxwell Jacob Friedman, Brady Pierce, Aaron Dean Eisenberg, among others.

Upon its release in December 2023, The Iron Claw garnered mostly positive reviews from critics. Hollywood Reporter's chief film critic David Rooney described the film, saying, 'As Kevin recalls in voiceover, Fritz instilled a belief in his sons that if they were the toughest, the fastest, the strongest, nothing could ever hurt them. The dismantling of that belief in the face of all-too-human physical and psychological vulnerability is ultimately what makes the uneven but heartfelt film affecting.'

If you're eager to experience the emotional journey of The Iron Claw or want to witness the gripping performances of its cast, you can stream the film on demand or catch it in theaters. Digital copies can be purchased from popular platforms, while tickets for the theatrical release are still available online. Don't miss out on this captivating story that explores the complexities of family dynamics and the pursuit of greatness in the wrestling world.
