The planned release date for Fighting With My Family, the feature film based on the lives of WWE star Paige and the rest of the Knight Family, who promote WAW in Great Britain, has been pushed back from this September to 3/1/19, it was announced today.

Deadline.com is reporting the move was made in order to get the film away from what is expected to be a packed weekend of releases in September that include the new Predator film.

Stephen Merchant (The Office, Hello Ladies) wrote, directed and Executive produced the film, which is based on a British documentary about the Knight family that was released several years back.  WWE tryouts for Paige and her brother, who wrestles as Zak Bevis were featured in the documentary.  The role of Paige is portrayed by actress Florence Pugh.  Nick Frost and Lena Headey play Paige's parents.  The Rock appears in the film as himself while WWE NXT star Zelina Vega plays AJ Lee in the film.
