Robert De Niro Coaches Roberto Duran In First Image from HANDS OF STONE

Another boxing movie for Robert De Niro. This time, however, the Grudge Match star goes behind the ropes and in the corner of Panamanian boxing legend - Roberto Duran (played by Edgar Ramirez).



For the part, Bob had to wear some prosthetic makeup and fake hair, which as you can see, made him look very old. However, he could still knock you out in a heartbeat.
