What happens
Christy is a 2025 American biographical sports drama film directed by David Michôd, written by Michôd and Mirrah Foulkes, and starring Sydney Sweeney, Ben Foster, Merritt Wever, Katy O'Brian, Ethan Embry, and Chad L. Coleman. The film chronicles the rise of former professional boxer Christy Martin (Sweeney) to becoming America's best-known female boxer in the 1990s, and later her coach-turned-husband's 2010 attempted murder of her. The film had its world premiere at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival on September 5, 2025, in the Special Presentations section. It was released theatrically on November 7, 2025, by Black Bear Pictures, earning $1.3 million in its opening weekend in the United States, which Box Office Mojo classified as one of the top 12 worst openings for a new release that opened on over 2,000 screens. As a result, the film has been considered a box-office bomb. It opened at #11 at the box office, outside the top ten, and fell to #23 by its second week. The film received mixed reviews from critics, though the performances were praised. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
