5 Wrestling Movies That Deserve A Sequel
Who doesn't love a good wrestling movie?
1. Foxcatcher (2014)
Foxcatcher tells the real-life story of philanthropist John du Pont's commission of an American wrestling team, with designs on making a strong run for the Olympics. The film also portrays his senseless murder of hand-selected trainer David Schultz (not Dr. D) in 1996.
Schultz's most notable pupil was not portrayed in the film, but he went on to win the gold later that same year: Kurt Angle, who dedicated his dramatic, hard-fought victory to Schultz's memory. You could absolutely do an "origin" story on Angle, in the Foxcatcher vein.
