Tommy Riordan is a melancholy Marine who travels to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, to visit his father, Paddy Conlon, whom he hasn't seen in years. Paddy is a former alcoholic who has returned to his Catholic faith and insists he is no longer the man who destroyed his home. Tommy recalls that, as a child, he and his mother had to flee the city because of his father's drinking, and for that reason he holds his father's former violent personality against him. Paddy explains that he has changed and asks for a second chance, but Tommy doesn't believe him. Directed by Gavin O'Connor, the film brings this reunion to life with Tom Hardy as Tommy and Nick Nolte as Paddy.

Trivia about Warrior

Tom Hardy gained about 13 kg of muscle mass in five weeks to prepare physically for his role. He and Joel Edgerton began training with mixed martial arts fighters in December 2009.

Mixed martial arts promoter Charles Lewis was set to play the tournament organizer, but his death in 2009 led Gavin O'Connor to take on the role himself.

The release was delayed by nearly a year to avoid clashing with The Fighter. The movie hit U.S. theaters on September 9, 2011.

The movie had an Indian adaptation titled Brothers, released in 2015, starring Akshay Kumar and Sidharth Malhotra.

The exterior scenes of the main fight were shot at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, along with shots of the boardwalk and the beach.

Joel Edgerton tore his medial collateral ligament during filming inside the cage, which forced production on his fight scenes to halt for six weeks.

Tom Hardy suffered a broken toe, several fractured ribs, and a broken finger during production of the movie.

The character of Paddy was written specifically for Nick Nolte, although the studio was reluctant to hire him; screenwriters Gavin O'Connor and Anthony Tambakis stood by their choice.
