Mickey Rourke & Rob Gronkowski Film 'The Roaring Game' Lands Distribution
Imagine a funny movie about a guy named Ricky who isn't the best at sports.
His girlfriend is going to play hockey for Team USA, and Ricky feels left out.
To impress her and get her back, he decides to form his own quirky team to play a different sport: curling!
Using his skills as a janitor, he helps his new team compete for a gold medal.
It's a story about unlikely heroes and trying your best, kind of like movies from the 90s.
The movie, called 'The Roaring Game,' stars famous actors like Mickey Rourke and even a football player named Rob Gronkowski.
A company called Brainstorm Media bought the rights to show the movie in North America, and it's planned to come out in early 2026, just in time for the Winter Olympics.
Brainstorm Media has acquired North American distribution rights for 'The Roaring Game'.

The movie is scheduled for release in February 2026, coinciding with the Winter Olympics.
