For their new film "Bleed For This", Miles Teller and Aaron Eckhart had to get into the headspace of the story of real life five time world champion boxer Vinny Pazienza. For Miles Teller this meant getting into prime, physical "Boxer Shape" to play a character with the physical accumen to accomplish such a feat. Bolstered by the raw determination of a character who refused to let a potentially life-threatening injury stop him from acheiving his dreams, Aaron Eckhart is quick to point out the raw and primal forces of the film, that of self-protection and survival. These couple to create a powerful tour-de-force of drama and a boxing film that takes the physical toll of the sport to the limit.
