Starz has released the trailer for Fightland, a new crime drama produced by 50 Cent. Set against the backdrop of British boxing, the series is Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson’s first internationally produced show through G-Unit Film & Television. The production company has produced films such as Den of Thieves and Moses the Black, as well as series including BMF.
Fightland follows Maduka “Duke” Kilroy, a world heavyweight champion who is incarcerated after reacting violently following an assault on his brother. Eight years later, Kilroy leaves prison and starts his quest for vengeance against crime boss Kingsley Marshall, who used to be his promoter. However, Marshall appears to have vanished, leaving behind his wife, Joy, who is also Kilroy’s romantic partner. The show chronicles Kilroy’s infiltration of Marshall’s criminal empire in London.

The trailer ends with several shots of Kilroy’s boxing life and present-day vengeance against Marshall colliding against each other.
