First Look at Edgar Ramirez and Robert De Niro in 'Hands of Stone'


It's been awhile since we heard anything about Roberto Duran biopic, Hands of Stone, but the film has apparently made its way through the European Film Market, which is where Collider have found this first image. The film stars Edgar Ramirez as the Hall of Fame boxer, who fought for five decades against some of the best including Sugar Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns, and Marvin Hagler. Unfortunately, he'll always be remembered for supposedly crying "No mas!" during his rematch against Leonard and quitting the fight, which Duran disputes.


Robert De Niro co-stars as Duran's trainer, Ray Arcel, with Usher (!!!) as Ray Leonard.  Ellen Barkin, Ruben Blades, Reg E. Cathey (as Don King), Jurnee Smollett-Bell and John Turturro round out the cast.
