Time doesn’t heal every wound; some legends carry their scars forever.
Raging Bull 2 returns to the tragic and turbulent world of Jake LaMotta, the once-feared boxing champion whose inner demons rivaled any opponent he faced in the ring. Set decades after the events of the iconic original, this follow-up is less a boxing film and more a searing character study of a man confronting the wreckage of his past and the ghosts that never left him.
Now in his twilight years, LaMotta lives in quiet obscurity, far from the roaring crowds and flashing cameras that once defined his fame. Estranged from his family and haunted by regret, he is pulled back into public life by a young documentary filmmaker determined to capture the truth behind the myth. But the camera does more than record—it exposes.
Through a series of raw interviews and painful flashbacks, Jake is forced to relive the choices that brought him glory and shame. He reconnects with old rivals, lost loves, and the younger version of himself he can no longer recognize. As the world changes around him, LaMotta must decide if redemption is still possible—or if his life has already gone the distance.
Director Martin Scorsese returns as executive producer, with a gritty, stripped-down approach that honors the original's stark realism. The film blends archival footage with new performances, delivering a reflective, intimate, and emotionally charged experience that confronts masculinity, violence, and aging head-on.
Raging Bull 2 is not about victory—it’s about reckoning. It’s the final chapter in the story of a man who fought everyone, including himself.
