About The Fire Inside Movie:
The Fire Inside is an upcoming American biographical sports drama film, based on T-Rex, a 2015 documentary about American professional boxer Claressa “T-Rex” Shields training for the 2012 Summer Olympics.
Directed by Rachel Morrison, the film stars Ryan Destiny in the lead role alongside Judy Greer, Brian Tyree Henry, Oluniké Adeliyi, and De’Adre Aziza. It is Rachel Morrison’s directorial debut.
Development of the film began in October 2016. Principal photography began at Cinespace Film Studios in Toronto on March 11, 2020, but on March 13, production was halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It was scheduled to resume in June 2021. Universal Pictures was originally going to make the movie, and after the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown, it was moved to MGM.
In June 2019, Ice Cube was initially cast in the film but left in October, and Brian Tyree Henry replaced him.
The Fire Inside is scheduled to be released in theaters on August 9, 2024, by Amazon MGM Studios through their Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer label.
