The ten-part Michael Jordan docuseries “The Last Dance,” which chronicled Jordan’s career and final year with the Chicago Bulls, gave fans a behind-the-scenes look at the six-time NBA champion’s life on and off the court.
Now, another six-time champion will be following in Jordan’s footsteps with a docuseries of his own. Bucs QB Tom Brady is set to release a nine-part series next year.
“The nine-episode series, produced by Gotham Chopra’s Religion of Sports and Brady’s recently formed 199 Productions, is called Man in the Arena and will offer the quarterback’s first-hand accounts of pivotal moments in his career, including all nine of his Super Bowl appearances with the New England Patriots. It’s set to air in 2021.”
If the success of “The Last Dance” is any indication, “Man in the Arena” could be another monster hit for ESPN.
Brady took to Twitter to post a trailer for the series.
I have quoted Theodore Roosevelt’s “Man in the Arena” speech since I saw it painted on our weight room wall at UM in 1995. It’s a constant reminder to ignore the noise, buckle my chinstrap, and battle through whatever comes my way.
