“The Unbreakable Boy,” the inspiring true story of Scott and Teresa LeRette, is now available to stream.
This Kingdom Story Company and Lionsgate film stars Zachary Levi (“Shazam!,” “Chuck,” “Tangled,” “Thor: The Dark World”), Patricia Heaton (“Everybody Loves Raymond,” “The Middle”), Jacob Laval, Meghann Fahy (“The White Lotus”), and Drew Powell (“Gotham,” “Ordinary Angels“).
The film is produced by Kevin Downes, Jon Erwin, Jerilyn Esquibel, Peter Facinelli, and Andrew Erwin.
“The Unbreakable Boy” follows members of the LeRette family as they navigate their son’s autism and brittle bone disease while Scott grapples with addiction.
Scott LeRette recently shared with ChurchLeaders how amazing it is that his story is enshrined in a film that can help people now and in the future.
“When I’m 80, maybe I can go back and, you know, read my story and just think about how silly something was or something will make me grin,” he said.
“It’s pretty surreal” that God is using LeRette’s story for his purposes, LeRette shared.
“I think ‘perseverance’ can be kind of a code word for faith. You know, my favorite Scripture is 2 Timothy 4:7,” he said. “Its all about keeping the faith, staying the course, and finishing the race. It’s so appropriate for my story.”

LeRette said that he’s kept that verse close to his heart since high school. In fact, it inspired him to create the mantra: “I know I’ll never fail, as long as I don’t quit.”
