The first trailer for the upcoming biopic BigGeorgeForeman shows the boxer's iconic fight with Muhammad Ali.
The upcoming biopic Big George Foreman has received its first official trailer. The film will be released by Sony Pictures and is directed by Men of Honor and Notorious director George Tillman Jr., with Khris Davis portraying the boxer. Forest Whitaker, Sonja Sohn, John Magaro, and Sullivan Jones are also slated to appear in the dramatic retelling of the formative moments in the boxer's life in and out of the ring.
Released by Sony Pictures on February 1, the first day of Black History Month, the Big George Foreman biopic trailer shows many of the highlights of Foreman's career, including his iconic fight with Muhammad Ali. SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Foreman and Ali first fought on October 30, 1974. Referred to as "The Rumble in the Jungle," the fight took place in Kinshasa, Zaire and featured Foreman's knockout defeat to Ali shortly after becoming the Heavyweight Champion of the World. The trailer also shows the aftermath of his many infamous fights, including Foreman surviving a near-death experience and devoting his life to his religion before making his eventual return to the ring.
The trailer shows Foreman's relationship with his family and loved ones, including Doc Broadus, the boxer’s longtime trainer who introduced him to the sport. Whitaker will play Broadus in the upcoming film after making a recent appearance in Andor and starring in his ongoing series Godfather of Harlem. The trailer teases some of the duo's interactions throughout each of their respective careers, with Broadus being a constant presence in the boxer's life.
Where the film gets deeper is its apparent focus on Foreman's personal life. The film will document how Foreman's religious life led to financial struggles for his family and his Houston church. Those hardships pushed Foreman out of his quasi-retirement and back into the ring, where he went on to reclaim his heavyweight belt in his late 40s. He was the oldest boxer to ever hold the title at the time.
