Based on the book Unstoppable: From Underdog to Undefeated: How I Became a Champion by Anthony Robles and Austin Murphy, Unstoppable follows Robles, played by Jharrel Jerome, as a champion wrestler. Despite being born without a right leg, Robles becomes an NCAA Division 1 Champion wrestler, ultimately winning a national championship against the school that rejected him, national powerhouse Iowa.
