The Class Of 92

7th November 2013

The Class of 92, a cinematic documentary detailing the rise to prominence and global sporting superstardom of six supremely talented young Manchester United footballers (David Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Phil and Gary Neville) will debut in selected cinemas across the UK from Sunday 1^st December and will be available on DVD from Monday 2^nd December. The film covers the period 1992-1999, culminating in Manchester Uniteds European Cup triumph, and will dramatically interweave and mirror the highs and lows of its football odyssey with the immense social and cultural changes taking place in Britain at the time.

At the heart of this ambitious film is the tale of how six 14 year-old working class lads from diverse backgrounds came together to play for the same club, became the spine of the most lauded team in world football, and who throughout their period of unparalleled success remained best mates. The production has the unique distinction of having secured unprecedented access to all six players and promises to gain new and revealing insights about each individual and this special period in British football and cultural history. In addition, the production has secured the collaboration of numerous high profile interviewees including Zinedine Zidane, Tony Blair, Mani from the Stone Roses, Eric Cantona and Danny Boyle.

According to Ryan Giggs, When we were approached to do this film, it gave me the chance to think back over all the events in not only my career but all of the lads involved. Hopefully youll see how personal it is to us all – were still great mates and who would turn down the chance to make a movie with your best mates? Phil Neville added, “Making this film was a great experience, it’s got us all together, as we don’t often get a chance to these days, to revisit old haunts and reflect over the past. I am really looking forward to seeing the film complete”. And finally David Beckham said “My time with these players at Manchester United were the most special in my career. We came from different backgrounds, grew up like a family playing together through the ranks, all wanting to be successful. In the end, what we achieved was beyond our wildest dreams. I loved making this film and reuniting back with the lads and talking openly about our time together.”
