I Play Rocky, directed by Peter Farrelly and starring Anthony Ippolito as Sylvester Stallone, recounts the making of the first film and the actor’s insistence on playing Rocky Balboa. The project was developed independently before Amazon MGM Studios took on distribution in 2025, clearing the use of the original score and allowing exact shots from the 1976 movie to be recreated. Screenwriter Peter Gamble said rival studios feared promoting a franchise owned by Amazon while most of the rewards would go to the company. The film opened on seven screens on November 6, earning about $345,000, or roughly $49,300 per screen, before expanding on November 20.
