Harris Does Dallas: Dickinson Gets into the Ring with Sean Durkin’s “The Iron Claw”

Date:

For those who might have noticed on the Triangle of Sadness press day in Cannes this past May, one of the players in Ruben Ostlund’s Palme d’Or winner was sporting a distinctive coiffe. We believe that Harris Dickinson might have already been in hair follicle prep mode for his next outing. Deadline reports that the next wrestler to join Sean Durkin’s The Iron Claw will be the British actor. Dickinson, has been stringing together some roles in indie projects such as Eliza Hittman’s Beach Rats and Joanna Hogg’s The Souvenir: Part II, will play David Von Erich, who was a younger brother (not by much) to Kevin Von Erich – Zac Efron. The A24 project is currently in pre production mode.

The film follows the rise and fall of the Von Erich family, a dynasty of wrestlers who made a huge impact on the sport from the 1960s to the present day.
