"She told me she wanted to be world champion - I didn't tell her she couldn't." Gravitas has unveiled the official US trailer for an indie documentary called Lioness: The Nicola Adams Story, telling the story of Olympic Gold Medalist Nicola Adams OBE. This is arriving in the US on VOD starting this April, for those interested in learning more about her story. Adams became the first woman ever to win an Olympic Gold medal for boxing - initially at the London 2012 Olympics, then again at Rio 2016. Lioness is a feature-length biographical documentary of Nicola Adams OBE, the double Olympic and WBO female boxing champion, and the first woman to ever represent England in boxing. She also became the first openly LGBT person to win an Olympic boxing gold medal, after her win at the 2012 Summer Olympics. Quite a story! Looks good.
