Warner Bros. Pictures has revealed a teaser poster and four retro-themed character one-sheets for director Peter Segal's new comedy “Grudge Match,” starring Sylvester Stallone, Robert De Niro,Kevin Hart, Kim Basinger and Alan Arkin.
The character posters individually feature Stallone's Henry "Razor" Sharp, De Niro's Billy "Kid" McDonnen, Hart's The Promoter and Arkin's The Trainer.
In the film, Billy “Kid” McDonnen and Henry "Razor" Sharp are two local Pittsburgh fighters whose fierce rivalry put them in the national spotlight. Each had scored a victory against the other during their heyday, but in 1983, on the eve of their decisive third match, Razor suddenly announced his retirement, refusing to explain why but effectively delivering a knock-out punch to both their careers. Thirty years later, boxing promoter Dante Slate Jr. (Hart), seeing big dollar signs, makes them an offer they can't refuse: to re-enter the ring and settle the score once and for all.
But they may not have to wait that long: on their first encounter in decades, their long-festering feud erupts into an unintentionally hilarious melee that instantly goes viral. The sudden social media frenzy transforms their local grudge match into a must-see HBO event. Now, if they can just survive the training, they may actually live to fight again.
Opening across the Philippines in January 2014, “Grudge Match” will be distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment Company.
