Synopsis
Ronnie Coleman: The King (2018) is an American documentary you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Vlad Yudin. It profiles the eight-time Mr. Olympia champion — a record he shares with Lee Haney — and catches Coleman after his career ended and his body paid the bill: more than six spinal surgeries, and crutches to walk.
Yudin follows his ongoing training sessions, which Coleman hasn't stopped despite the hardware in his spine, and layers in archive footage alongside interviews with Dorian Yates, Jay Cutler, Shawn Ray, Kai Greene, Victor Martinez, and Rich Gaspari. The question the film keeps circling: how does a broke cop from Texas with no connections become the most dominant bodybuilder the sport has ever produced, eight titles in a row?
The answer involves numbers that still seem impossible. The cost of those numbers is what the film actually shows. Stream Ronnie Coleman: The King (2018) online on iFILM.
