The first three episodes of “Messi Meets America” will be available on October 11, with the final three episodes to follow later in the MLS season.
Apple has promised that the series will feature exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to Messi and his inner circle, as it chronicles the World Cup-winner’s early journey with Inter Miami, which has already included a transformation of the club on the field and a Leagues Cup title.
“Messi Meets America” will be executive produced by Emmy winner Tim Pastore (“Free Solo,” “Jane”), Emmy and Tony winners Patrick Milling Smith and Brian Carmody, and Emmy winner Matt Renner (“Free Solo,” “Limitless with Chris Hemsworth”) of Smuggler Entertainment.
Apple TV is already developing a different documentary series on Messi, this one a four-parter that will chronicle Messi’s journey to World Cup glory with Argentina at the end of 2022.
