ESPN’s docuseries “The Last Dance” on Michael Jordan and the ’98 Chicago Bulls was a massive success for the network, averaging 5.65 million viewers across its 10 episodes.
So perhaps it should come as no surprise that the network has green-lit another multi-part series on another legendary champion and, like Jordan, arguably the greatest to play his particular sport, Tom Brady.
ESPN revealed the trailer to the nine-part series, titled “Man In The Arena’’ on the former Patriots and current Buccaneers quarterback, slated to air sometime in 2021, Thursday afternoon.
Produced by Gotham Chopra’s Religion of Sports and Brady’s recently formed 199 Productions, the series will share Brady’s accounts of the biggest moments in his career.
