LeBron James and Tom Brady to work together on new Apple show

LeBron James and Tom Brady are two of the biggest names of their generation and they will be joining forces together in a new production about their exploits on the court and the field, that will be featured as part of Apple TV-Plus. LeBron and Brady will both be featured as stars in the show, while also having a hand in the production, through their companies UNINTERRUPTED and Religion of Sport.

Director Gotham Chopra, who also directed ‘Shut Up and Dribble,’ produced by UNINTERRUPTED and Religion of Sport for Showtime, will direct the new Apple series entitled “Greatness Code,” Apple announced on Thursday. In addition to LeBron and Brady, Usain Bolt, Alex Morgan, Katie Ledecky, and Shaun White will all have ‘short-form’ documentaries about them.

LeBron James always busy with the production of sports-related content, but he’s been even busier over the past few weeks. The announcement of the new Apple series comes less than two weeks after UNINTERRUPTED and Quibi announced a new documentary about the Houston Astros sign-stealing cheating scandal. Earlier this week it was reported that he’s also working on a Netflix movie with Adam Sandler, who will play an American basketball scout overseas who is trying to make his way back to the NBA.
