Sony has offered up the first wave of marketing for their upcoming George Foreman biopic, namely a trailer, a poster and a release date. “Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World” will debut theatrically on April 28, 2023, occupying the pre-summer slot that in previous years was home to “He Got Game,” “Obsessed” and “Keanu.”  In 2023, that any studio is slotting anything resembling a big movie is a sign of a return to sanity within the theatrical ecosystem.

Directed by George Tillman Jr. (“The Hate U Give,” “Soul Food” and “Barbershop: The Next Cut” among others) and starring Khris Davis as Foreman, “Big George Foreman” stems from a story by Dan Gordon and Frank Baldwin and Goerge Tillman Jr.

And a screenplay from Baldwin and Tillman. The trailer, which you can watch at the top of this file, features the rags-to-riches true-life story of a young man who channeled his anger into Olympic glory and eventual professional glory in the boxing ring.

The second act of the trailer focuses on his attempts to walk away from boxing to be a preacher, with the third act focusing on his comeback, which saw him becoming the oldest-ever heavyweight champion in professional boxing history.
