About the film

What it’s about

In Sheffield, Brendan Ingle, a former steelworker who has become a boxing trainer, discovers Naseem Hamed, a young fighter from a working-class background. Hamed's unorthodox style and cocky persona set him apart, and Ingle sees the potential to turn him into a champion. Their partnership faces the racism and Islamophobia of 1980s and 1990s Britain as they climb through the ranks.

What hooks you

Pierce Brosnan and Paddy Considine both play Brendan Ingle at different stages, while Amir El-Masry and Mena Massoud portray Naseem Hamed. The project was developed from 2020, initially with Considine and Massoud in the lead roles. The story draws on the real-life rise of Hamed and his trainer.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys sports dramas with a biographical edge, stories of mentorship and underdog success, and period settings that explore social tensions.
