MANCHESTER UNITED: THE CLASS OF 92
CLASSOF92-6270455.jpg

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 1st December and will be available on DVD from Monday 2nd December.

The film covers the period 1992-1999, culminating in Manchester United’s 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.
