運命の出会い、宿命の対決。かつて、ある超人気漫画が日本人の心を一つにした。野性のケンカ屋・矢吹丈とエリートボクサー・力石徹の命を懸けた戦いに全ての人が熱狂し、その人気は社会現象と化した。この漫画史上最高傑作と謳われる魂の伝説「あしたのジョー」がついに実写映画。主人公・矢吹丈に山下智久、力石徹に伊勢谷友介。力石の身を案じ、支えるヒロイン・白木葉子に香里奈。ジョーの才能を見出す元ボクサー・丹下段平に香川照之。最強カルテットが極限の役作りで"本物"を演じる。監督は「ピンポン」でスポーツ漫画とCGを高いレベルで融合させた曽利文彦。――昭和40年代、東京の下町で殺伐とした生活を送る矢吹丈は、元ボクサー・丹下段平にボクサーとしてのセンスを見出される。しかし、問題を起こした丈は少年院へ。そこでチャンピオンレベルの力を持つプロボクサー・力石徹と運命の出会いを果たす。一足先に少年院を出た力石は、恵まれた環境のなか連戦連勝し、エリート街道をひた走る。一方の丈は、段平と二人三脚の特訓を行い、「クロスカウンターパンチ」を得意とする人気ボクサーとなる。やがて、力石は世界タイトルに手が届くところまで上り詰めるが、世界戦の前に丈との決着を望み、丈も力石戦実現を強く求める。そして、運命の日。ふたりは宿命のリングに上がる。
