If you are a sports movie fan and in particular the sport of boxing, then we are pleased to bring you the new Big George Foreman trailer and poster art courtesy of Sony Pictures and the release date of the new movie for its UK cinema release.
The new movie is directed by George Tillman Jr. and based upon the screenplay by ??Frank Baldwin & George Tillman Jr., BIG GEORGE FOREMAN stars Khris Davis, Jasmine Mathews, Sullivan Jones, Lawrence Gilliard Jr., John Magaro with Sonja Sohn and Forest Whitaker.
Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World is based on the remarkable true story of one of the greatest comebacks of all time and the transformational power of second chances. Fuelled by an impoverished childhood, Foreman channelled his anger into becoming an Olympic Gold medalist and World Heavyweight Champion, followed by a near-death experience that took him from the boxing ring to the pulpit.
But when he sees his community struggling spiritually and financially, Foreman returns to the ring and makes history by reclaiming his title, becoming the oldest and most improbable World Heavyweight Boxing Champion ever. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker George Tillman Jr. (Men of Honour, Notorious) from a story by Dan Gordon and Frank Baldwin & George Tillman Jr, and a screenplay by Baldwin & Tillman, the film stars Khris Davis (Judas and the Black Messiah) as Foreman and also stars Academy Award® winner Forest Whitaker as Foreman’s trainer and mentor Doc Broadus.
Big George Foreman will be in UK cinemas on April 28th.
