In 2016, Universal hired Jenkins to adapt the documentary “T-Rex.” Three years later, Morrison hopped on-board as director. Universal offloaded the film a year ago, only for MGM to pick it up. “Flint Strong” is set for a test-screening this coming Thursday in the West Coast. This is a potential indicator that it might have its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in January. The film tackles the true story of Claressa “T-Rex” Shields as she trains to box in the 2012 Summer Olympics. Shields is currently ranked as the world’s best active female middleweight by BoxRec, as well as the second-best active female boxer, pound for pound, by ESPN. The cast includes Brian Tyree Henry, Judy Greer and Ryan Destiny as Shields. There is currently no release date for the film, but it will surely be in theaters next year. Contribute Hire me
