The upcoming bodybuilding documentary Breaking Olympia: The Phil Heath Story has set a UK release date. The feature, executive produced by Dany Garcia and Dwayne Johnson, will land on digital to rent and own on 25th March.
The documentary is the definitive, never-before-told told story of Phil Heath – perhaps the greatest bodybuilder of all time. Featuring interviews with Dwayne Johnson, Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler, Kai Greene, Brandon Curry, Dexter Jackson, and many more, Breaking Olympia tracks the pivotal point in Heath’s career when, despite being plagued by injuries that come with 18 years of physical and mental sacrifice, Heath stands on the edge of altering the face of bodybuilding history.
“I’m thrilled to work alongside the Universal team and couldn’t be more excited to share this documentary with UK audiences,” said Heath. “With the countless ups and downs in my personal My. Olympia journey, I have hope that audiences might find a bit of themselves in my own story, and ideally leave this doc energized to take on the world. I’m incredibly appreciative of the team at Universal for giving my story and bodybuilding such an incredible platform. Let the games begin!”
The film is directed by Brett Harvey who brought the superb Inmate #1: The Rise of Danny Trejo to screens a couple of years back.
