Based on an astonishing true story.

In 1987, Mark Schultz, an Olympic wrestling champion, lives in the shadow of his brother Dave, who always gets more attention. When he gives a talk at an elementary school in Dave's place, he receives a call from John du Pont, a millionaire wrestling enthusiast. Du Pont offers him a place at his family estate to help set up a high-level training center. The goal is to prepare a team for the 1988 Seoul Olympic Games. Mark sees the chance to train without his brother overshadowing him and accepts the offer. The film is directed by Bennett Miller and stars Channing Tatum, Steve Carell and Mark Ruffalo.

Trivia about Foxcatcher

Channing Tatum considered their role the most challenging acting task of their career up to that point.

The scene in which the team watches mixed martial arts on television uses footage of Gary Goodridge's victory over Paul Herrera at UFC 8 in February 1996.

Du Pont's mansion, Liseter Hall, was demolished in January 2013, so the crew used Morven Park in Leesburg, Virginia, for the exterior scenes.

On a budget of $24 million, the film grossed $19.2 million worldwide, of which $12.1 million came from North America.

Mychael Danna, who had previously worked with Miller on Capote and Moneyball, was tasked with completing the final score, although the main credit went to Rob Simonsen.

Weeks after criticizing Bennett Miller, Mark Schultz backtracked and apologized to the director with the phrase "Foxcatcher is a miracle."

To prepare for their roles, Mark Ruffalo and Channing Tatum trained in wrestling for six months before filming, under the supervision of Mark Schultz.

Filming began five years after Bennett Miller had originally planned to start, and it dragged on through an especially harsh winter on the outskirts of Pittsburgh.

Quotes by Foxcatcher

Coach is the father. Coach is a mentor. Coach has great power on athlete's life.
You are not alone in this. I am your brother and I love you.
I'm getting Dave. And I don't care how much it costs.
I consider you a friend. And my friends call me Eagle. Or Golden Eagle. Either of those would work. Or John. Or Coach.
I don't care about trains, Mother. I am leading men!
[slaps Mark Schultz in the face and whispers] You ungrateful ape.
