American media company MGM is reportedly stepping into the ring to put the world rights to Fighting With My Family in a headlock.
Dwayne Johnson's wrestling drama was up for grabs at Berlin's European Film Market (EFM) and has reportedly been purchased by MGM for a whopping $17.5 million in one of the biggest EFM deals ever made.
The film, which is set to be written and directed by The UK Office's Stephen Merchant, will shine a spotlight on WWE Superstar Paige, real name Saraya-Jade Bevis and her wrestling family from Norwich.
