The character posters individually feature Stallone’s Henry “Razor”
Sharp, De Niro’s Billy “Kid” McDonnen, Hart’s The Promoter and Arkin’s
The Trainer.

In the film, Billy “Kid” McDonnen and Henry “Razor” Sharp are two
local Pittsburgh fighters whose fierce rivalry put them in the
national spotlight. Each had scored a victory against the other during
their heyday, but in 1983, on the eve of their decisive third match,
Razor suddenly announced his retirement, refusing to explain why but
effectively delivering a knock-out punch to both their careers. Thirty
years later, boxing promoter Dante Slate Jr. (Hart), seeing big dollar
signs, makes them an offer they can’t refuse: to re-enter the ring and
settle the score once and for all.

But they may not have to wait that long: on their first encounter in
decades, their long-festering feud erupts into an unintentionally
hilarious melee that instantly goes viral. The sudden social media
frenzy transforms their local grudge match into a must-see HBO event.
Now, if they can just survive the training, they may actually live to
fight again.

Opening across the Philippines in January 2014, “Grudge Match” will be
distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, a Warner Bros. Entertainment
Company.
