ESPN will explore Brady's iconic career in a nine-part series titled 'Man in the Arena.'
After ESPN's success with The Last Dance, the network will explore another sports icon with a nine-part Tom Brady documentary coming in 2021.
According to Deadline, the series, titled Man in the Arena, will focus on Brady's career and include his first-hand account of the legendary moments from his NFL career. It will cover everything from the small moments in his journey to his nine Super Bowl appearances in 20 years with the Patriots.
Brady confirmed the announcement on Twitter Thursday and provided fans with a trailer.
"Things that I've dreamed about have actually come true," Brady said in the trailer. "You just keep putting one foot in front of the other, and you keep trying to make progress, so when I look at over 20 years, I look at how far I've come. But there's not one step that I took where I've realized, 'Look how far I've come.' But those series of steps that I've put together, I go, 'Wow, that's … that's quite a journey' "
Deadline reports the documentary will be co-produced by ESPN, Brady's new company 199 Productions and Gotham Chopra. Brady previously teamed up with Chopra on the 2018 Facebook Watch docuseries Tom Vs. Time.
"Nine Super Bowl appearances over the course of 20 years is an achievement on an unmatched level," said ESPN's Connor Schell in a statement to Deadline. "We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with Tom Brady as he reflects on each of those nine, season-long journeys and the pivotal moments that defined them. Gotham Chopra is a highly skilled filmmaker who I am confident will bring to life this story of an icon in a new and revealing way."
