Inspired by true events can sometimes be the international sign
for eye roll when it comes to movies. This isn't the case with Ali
Afshar and his upcoming film American Wrestler: The Wizard.
An immigrant who fled Iran as a child, Afshar worked with Warner
Brothers to create a movie that centered around his struggles as an
Iranian during the 1980s, at the height of the Iran-U.S.
international hostage crisis.
What was the outlet that led him to acceptance and through his own
personal struggles? Wrestling. Afshar, who has an accomplished
career in motorsports, has also been in a number of filmes and
television series. American Wrestler will debut via FathomEvents on
May 3 and then have a full digital release two weeks later.
