In some movie news today, the new trailer drops for GIANT, the movie based on the inspiring true story of legendary British-Yemeni world boxing champion Prince Naseem Hamed (Amir El-Masry) and his relationship with Irish boxing trainer Brendan Ingle (Pierce Brosnan).
Charting his inspiring rags-to-riches underdog tale from his humble beginnings in Sheffield to becoming champion of the world and a global sporting icon in the 1990s, the film explores the unlikely and tender relationship between Naz and his Irish boxing trainer, Brendan Ingle, and the instrumental role that Ingle played on his road to success.
With exhilarating and visceral scenes in the ring, coupled with deeply moving and intimate moments behind the curtain, GIANT is an inspiring biopic of one of the greatest showmen the sporting world has ever seen – the untold true story of the boy behind The Prince.
Naseem Hamed is played by Amir El-Masry (The Night Manager, Limbo, The Crown, SAS: Rogue Heroes) with Pierce Brosnan (James Bond franchise, Mamma Mia!, The Love Punch, Mobland) as Brendan Ingle. From executive producer Sylvester Stallone (Rocky, Creed), GIANT is written and directed by filmmaker Rowan Athale (Gangs of London).
