ESPN reveals slate of five new ’30 for 30′ films airing this summer

On Tuesday, ESPN released its schedule of five new editions of its 30 for 30 docuseries that will air this summer.

Several of the films had already been announced or reported elsewhere, including one revealed over a year ago.

The schedule starts with I’m Just Here for the Riot, which was announced in March 2023. This film airs on June 4 at 7:30 p.m. ET and focuses on the riotous aftermath of the Vancouver Canucks’ Stanley Cup Final loss to the Boston Bruins in 2011.

False Positive premieres on June 11 at 7 p.m. ET and explores track star Butch Reynolds and his false positive drug test in 1990. Details about this film were reported on last month.

No Scope: The Story of FaZe Clan premieres on July 1 at 7 p.m. ET. This previously unannounced doc is esports-centric, throwing the spotlight onto FaZe Clan “and the remarkable series of ups and downs that have defined that story and its characters over the last decade-plus.”

American Son is the Michael Chang 30 for 30 that was originally announced back in September 2022. Debuting on July 29 at 7 p.m. ET, the film explores “Chang’s upbringing shaped by his family’s immigrant experience, his rapid rise in the tennis world, and the challenges he overcame to achieve success.”

Finally, we’re getting Dude Perfect: A Very Long Shot at 9:30 p.m. ET on August 3. This film was reported in March and debuted at the Dallas International Film Fest in April. It “traces the meteoric rise” of Dude Perfect and “explores the challenges and sacrifices” of the business.
