by Giannis Antetokounmpo The biopic ‘Rise’ is out now Marcus Rashford has come over from Manchester to show his support.
The incredible story of Giannis Antetokounmpo is now coming to the big screen. The life of the Greek Freak is adapted into a film.
From the book “Giannis: The Improbable Rise of an MVP” by Mirin Fader, Rise is a biopic that traces the history of the monster.
From the streets of Athens to becoming an NBA champion, Giannis’ life is nothing short of a fairy tale.
There are not many athletes who have such a rich history. Naturally, the world is impressed and fully supports the film.
Marcus Rashford joins him and shows his support. The English footballer was in Los Angeles and decided to show up on the red carpet.
Giannis posted a photo with Marcus. The two posed with swimsuits. Marcus even signed his England jersey before handing it over to Antetokounmpo.

Some even wondered why Rashford didn’t present Giannis with a Manchester United shirt. One user claims United’s abysmal form could be the reason.
Rashford is so embarrassed by Man Utd that he gave Giannis an England shirt 😄 https://t.co/YUqYip5ZEi

It is important to remember that the season has ended and that Manchester United have still not unveiled their new shirts.
Another user talks about how small Marcus is compared to the Greek monster.
Giannis made Rashford tiny😂

Everything else aside, it’s good to see two rising stars supporting each other. Both supported their local communities.
Marcus has also worked hard to bring attention to the poor in his hometown of Manchester. And Giannis constantly worked to uplift people in Greece.
