No, the movie is a biography about a PRISONER nick-named Charles Bronson (real name is Michael Gordon Peterson). He was a circus strong-man turned criminal who spent a majority of his time in solitary confinement. His promoter named him Charles Bronson with NO relation to the actor.
"Prior to being imprisoned, Bronson had a short-lived career in bareknuckle boxing in the East End of London, during which time he became an associate of Lenny McLean. It is stated on his website that, contrary to press reports, his name was changed by his fight promoter in 1987, thirteen years after his initial imprisonment and that his choice was not made in relation to the actor, Charles Bronson.[3] However, it has often been suggested Bronson changed his name by deed poll to be more in line with a "tough guy" image."
