Pierce Brosnan's Boxing Biopic 'Giant' Relocates to Leeds for UK Tax Breaks

The film, depicting the rise of British-Yemeni boxer Prince Naseem Hamed, benefits from new government incentives for independent productions.

'Giant' stars Pierce Brosnan as boxing trainer Brendan Ingle and Amir El-Masry as Prince Naseem 'Naz' Hamed.
Originally set to film in Malta, the production moved to Leeds to utilize a 40% tax relief for films shot in England.
The movie highlights Naz's journey to global stardom amid 1980s and 1990s Britain.
Executive producers include Sylvester Stallone, with Rowan Athale directing and writing the film.
First-look images reveal an unrecognizable Brosnan in character, marking a significant transformation for the role.
