The youngest daughter of the late professional wrestler Kerry Von Erich has spoken out about A24’s depiction of her father in its critically acclaimed 2023 sports drama, The Iron Claw.

Directed by Sean Durkin, the movie told the tragic story of the real-life Von Erich family, a wrestling dynasty from Texas who enjoyed enormous success throughout the Eighties. It starred Zac Efron as the only surviving Von Erich brother, Kevin; Jeremy Allen White as Kerry; Harris Dickinson as David; Stanley Simons as Mike; and Holt McCallany as the family patriarch, Fritz.
