Due to huge public demand, Muhammad Ali's biopic, 'Ali,' starring Will Smith, will return to theatres this weekend as an homage and celebration of the life of the American icon.

Reportedly, the movie will enjoy a limited release and will be screened in a few hundred cinemas in America, says the Express Tribune.

According to Rory Bruer, the president of Sony, from the time of the legendary boxer's demise (June 3), they received many requests for this film to return to theaters, in celebration of his life.

"The film truly honors everything that made Ali one of the central figures of our time, a man who commanded his sport but whose personal faith and principles made him mean so much more," he added.

 

'Ali' grossed over 87 million dollar worldwide at the box office in 2001.
