A film is being released about All Black legend Richie McCaw, showcasing his life from his beginnings in the small town of Kurow through to a rugby superstar leading the national team to two World Cup victories.
Chasing Great, released in cinemas in September, will showcase never-before-seen footage of McCaw including his friends and family.
"I was always quite keen to make sure I kept some of the private stuff private, not for any reason other than I just felt that was the right thing to do," McCaw said.
He said the opportunity to "inspire some young kids" saw him take part in the project.
