26 years after starring in the definitive boxing biopic, Robert De Niro is returning to the ring for the story of Roberto Duran in Hands of Stone.
De Niro won't be putting on the gloves this time around though (we saw enough of that horror in Grudge Match), instead he's playing legendary trainer Ray Arcel in the movie which focuses on Duran's boxing career and in particular his rivalry with Sugar Ray Leonard (Usher).
Edgar Ramirez plays Duran in the movie and could find himself in contention come awards season if the film lives up to the promise of the trailer.
