Watts to line up beside husband in boxer movie

Naomi Watts is set to star in new boxing drama 'The Bleeder'.

The Australia actress will team up with her husband Liev Schreiber for the first time since 2006's 'The Painted Veil' to star in the film based on the true story of New Jersey heavyweight boxer Chuck Wepner whose 15 rounds with Muhammad Ali inspired Sylvester Stallone to write 'Rocky'.
