Fans nearly missed the “Die Another Day” actor when he posted an Instagram photo of himself dressed as well-known boxing trainer Brendan Ingle. Wearing round glasses, Brosnan had significantly thinner hair and had shaved off all of his facial hair.

In the biopic “Giant,” which stars Brosnan as boxer Prince Naseem’s renowned trainer and tells the inspirational tale of his rise from poverty to fame, the actor is presently filming.

Fans expressed their disbelief at the shift in the comment section, as well as their excitement for the biopic. An Instagram user said, “I almost didn’t recognize you without all your pretty hair.” Not everyone on the internet realized that Brosnan was acting in a role. He’s aged out, a commentator continued.

Not all remarks, though, were unfavorable; several viewers expressed curiosity about Brosnan’s interpretation of the well-known boxing coach. “I’m interested in watching this interesting movie you’re playing soon,” a fan commented on the internet.

One individual expressed similar enthusiasm by saying, “You rock in everything you do, Pierce,” while another person could only think of one word to characterize Brosnan’s abilities: “class.”

 

The actor from “Mamma Mia!” was also recently spotted on the Leeds-based movie’s shoot. Wearing an Adidas jumper and a blue tracksuit, Brosnan was looking really goofy. He incorporated the trainer’s particular flair into the ensemble by donning clear-framed sunglasses and a black cap.

The actor was spotted meeting up with Ingle’s sons, John and Dominic, as well as his grandson, Luca, on the set, where they were all brought along to observe the movie being made.

 

It is also said that the family read the script and provided some commentary on how Ingle’s role was written. The trainer had a record-breaking career as a boxer and trainer before passing away in 2018 at the age of 77.

After finishing 19–14 in 34 fights as a fighter, Ingle moved on to become well-known as a manager and trainer. In the Sheffield gym, he became well-known for his footwork exercises.

Then, starting when Naseem was seven years old, the sports champion guided him, and the two of them broke records held by champions. Subsequently, Ingle received an MBE in recognition of his commitment to working with youth and their role in British boxing.

The trainer was also a lecturer at Sheffield Hallam University, where he was awarded an honorary doctorate. Rowan Athale will direct and Sylvester Stallone will produce the much awaited movie.

Pierce Brosnan may need to keep his beard off for the duration of the play, but Keely Shaye Smith, his wife, may be digging the clean shaven look. The actor has grown out his beard hair even longer for his role in “The Son” in an interview with GQ from 2018.

 

But the actor was eager to get rid of his beard because it was long enough for him to wear it in a small braid for the TV series. He said, “She puts up with it and she tolerates it, but she wants her Irish boy Pierce back again, not some old goat,” in response to a question about how his wife felt about his Texas cowboy appearance.

 

Smith may have become accustomed to her husband’s multiple personas by now, given his current impressive resume and lack of plans to quit playing intriguing roles.
