Awful Announcing
"The series brings in guests from different backgrounds for fascinating conversations around the themes of hatred, chance, failure, perfection and others."
The feature-length documentary on the basketball legend will be directed by Gotham Chopra (Religion of Sports).
"It was the development of myself as a player, but also as a person off the field. I was soaking up all the information."
"There’s no one I’d rather have ridden this roller coaster with than Russ. Contrary to the persona that’s been painted about him, he’s one of the sharpest, most dynamic, caring, creative and driven people I’ve ever met and collaborated with."
"It's not been fun. It's been scary. ...I'm worth more than gold."
EJ Laretta and Melissa Radzimski have both joined Religion of Sports, and the company also announced a new Simone Biles docuseries this week.
The first seven-episode season will feature chronicle athletes at pivotal moments in their careers.
Brady will be on camera for several projects, including a documentary titled Unseen Football.
"We know that our sports heroes face mental health challenges, just like so many others. We hope this project will advance that conversation and show people that resources and assistance are available to everyone."
Director Gotham Chopra spoke to AA about why he featured pundits like ESPN's Stephen A. Smith and Max Kellerman in the final episode of Stephen vs The Game, and how Stephen Curry reacts to being under a punditry microscope.
Curry's openness combined with Gotham Chopra's skillful use of archival footage and interviews of others to make the first episode of Stephen Vs. The Game an interesting one, one which stands out in a crowded field of athlete content.
There are a whole lot of sports podcasts out there, as shown with our Should I Listen To...
Fans can rewatch an episode with Brady and Chopra Tuesday night, then check out a new epilogue episode Wednesday.
