EXCLUSIVE: Ben Foster (The Messenger), Leslie Bibb (The White Lotus), and KJ Apa (Riverdale) are set to star in Gable, a film telling the extraordinary true story of Olympic gold medalist wrestler Dan Gable, who will be played by Peaky Blinders and Animal Kingdom‘s Finn Cole.
Gable chronicles the athlete’s journey, as a working-class kid from Waterloo, Iowa who overcame an unthinkable family tragedy to become one of the most dominant athletes in the history of combat sports, compiling a 181-1 record throughout high school and college, and ultimately facing off against the powerful Soviets at the height of the Cold War.
