The newest short film from Under Armour’s “Rule Yourself” campaign features Olympic champion swimmer Michael Phelps.
Directed by Martin de Thurah of Epoch Films for Droga5 New York, the short focuses on the intense training regimen, sacrifice and determination of Phelps as he trains into the wee hours. His story is a perfect fit for the Under Armour mantra, “It’s what you do in the dark that puts you in the light.”
