Unstoppable is a 2024 American biographical sports drama film directed by William Goldenberg in his feature directorial debut. Written by Eric Champnella, Alex Harris and John Hindman, it is based on the 2012 book of the same name by Anthony Robles (who also serves as producer) and Austin Murphy. It is produced by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon through Artists Equity, and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas through Nuyorican Productions. It stars Jharrel Jerome as Robles,[2] with a supporting cast that includes Jennifer Lopez, Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña, and Don Cheadle.[3][4]

Unstoppable had its premiere in the Special Presentations section at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 6, 2024, followed by a limited theatrical release in December 6, 2024 by Amazon MGM Studios.

It was also announced that Jennifer Lopez would star in the film, with Jharrel Jerome playing Anthony Robles.[5][6]

Principal photography began in Los Angeles in May 2023, but was halted two weeks later due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.[7] On December 12, 2023, principal photography resumed after the end of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, with Don Cheadle, Michael Peña, and Bobby Cannavale joining the cast.[8] On January 14, 2024, it was announced that principal photography had wrapped.[9]
