Sky has released the first teaser trailer for Fightland, the upcoming family crime drama from Executive Producer Curtis 50 Cent Jackson, set against London's boxing scene. Fightland premieres this summer on Sky and streaming service NOW.

Executive-produced by Curtis 50 Cent Jackson, the series is a gripping story of redemption, betrayal and brutal ambition - in and out of the ring. With edge-of-your-seat action and a gritty setting populated by dangerous characters, this is a world of money and power never seen before. Fightland marks Curtis 50 Cent Jackson's first internationally produced show through G-Unit Film & Television.

On the night that British-born boxer Duke Kilroy (Howard Charles) becomes world heavyweight champion, a vicious assault leaves his brother, Calvin, dead. Duke is devastated and his reaction in the aftermath costs him eight years in a U.S. prison. Upon his release, and after having made a sinister discovery, Duke returns home seeking vengeance against the man he believes set him up -- the criminal kingpin and former promoter, Kingsley Marshall (Nicholas Pinnock). But Kingsley has vanished, leaving his children and wife, Joy (Deborah Ayorinde), who happens to be the love of Duke's life, to pick up the pieces.

Working with a cartel desperate to control London's drug market, Duke begins a high-risk game of infiltrating Kingsley's empire to destroy it from within and smoke out his enemy. But amidst a volatile criminal landscape, and competing influences threatening to pull him off course, Duke will need to channel everything that made him a champion fighter into his bloody pursuit to win the ultimate victory - revenge for his brother.

In addition to Charles, Pinnock and Ayorinde, Fightland stars Anita-Joy Uwajeh as Cebella Cece Marshall, Charles Babalola as Ezekiel Zeek Marshall, Tahirah Sharif as Kim Harper, Tyler Conti as Justin Jay Hall and Richard Pepple as Gary Gazzer Kilroy.

Curtis 50 Cent Jackson executive-produces through his G-Unit Film & Television, along with Francis Hopkinson (Wallander, Bancroft) and Kate Leadbetter (Woman in White, Catherine the Great) of Expanded Media who also produce. The series is created by Daniel Fajemisin-Duncan & Marlon Smith (Run, Save Me), who also serve as executive producers and writers, and Damione Macedon (Power, BMF, Genius: MLK/X) & Raphael Jackson Jr. (Power, BMF, Genius: MLK/X) who serve as showrunners, executive producers and writers. Otto Bathurst (Peaky Blinders) directs and executive-produces the first two episodes.

The series was secured for Sky by Facundo Bailez, Head of Acquisitions, and Rachel McCartney, Acquisitions Manager, as part of Sky's ongoing partnership with STARZ.
