TRUE Horror Story of Olympic Gold Wrestler Murdered by Millionaire Coach
US Olympic Gold Wrestler Murdered by BILLIONAIRE Coach as TRUE Horror Story Made Into Film With Unrecognisable Stars
A tragic real life drama was made into a Hollywood movie starring Steve Carell
MailOnline 23 AUG 2025
Steve Carell and Mark Ruffalo are almost unrecognisable in their roles
The brutal murder of Olympic gold wrestler Dave Shultz by his own coach sent shockwaves through America and the sporting world.
John du Pont murdered wrestler Dave Schultz in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania on 26 January 1996
John du Ponts Descent Into Madness
The chilling story of Dave, his brother, and their multimillionaire coach may have been overlooked by many who arent wrestling fans, but it was thrust into the spotlight when it was turned into a harrowing Hollywood drama featuring some big names.
Foxcatcher, unlike many uplifting underdog sports stories, takes a much darker and more sinister turn as it explores the ultimately fatal relationship between the Schulz brothers and the heir to the Du Pont chemical family fortune.
The tale begins in the 1980s when Mark Schulz was invited to join John du Ponts newly established wrestling academy and training camp, Team Foxcatcher, at the lavish Du Point family estate.
Funded by his familys vast wealth, the facility at his Pennsylvania home attracted wrestlers with the promise of competing in the Olympics and World Championships
After some persuasion, Mark brought his champion brother, Dave, into the project and after achieving global success as Team Foxcatcher, disaster struck.
With Mark having moved away following a disagreement with John, on 26 January 1996, the coach drove up to Daves home and shot him dead after being greeted as usual, causing shockwaves around the world.
BILLIONAIRE Coach Du Pont was subsequently found guilty of third degree murder, diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and perished behind bars in 2010.
Whilst the motive behind the killing was never fully comprehended, speaking to LAist, Mark said He admired us and at the same time was jealous of us, kind of hated us in a way, because we had what money couldnt buy

He added I regret that my brother died, and I regret that I met du Pont, but had it not been for these horrible curses, this movie would not be made, and Dave would not be immortalised.
