CHUCK WEPNER

Interview with Chuck Wepner, the inspiration for Rocky.

 

Chuck Wepner was the inspiration for the “Rocky” movies. Now he has a movie coming out about his life. The film “Chuck” premiers nationwide on May 5th. It stars Liev Schieber as Wepner and Naomi Watts as his current wife Linda. Watch highlights from our 2012 interview. Chuck is a die hard Yankee fan. I guess you can say The Bayonne Bleeder bleeds Yankee Pinstripes.
