DESCRIPTION:
(from Amazon's press release, July 2024) Today, Prime Video announced that it has ordered The Greatest, the first authorized scripted series about the life of global icon, boxing champion, and humanitarian Muhammad Ali. The series, which has unprecedented access to the estate of Ali, is produced by Michael B. Jordan's (The Creed Franchise) Outlier Society, Ben Watkins' Blue Monday Productions, Authentic Studios, Roc Nation, Polygram Entertainment, a Universal Music Group partner, and Grace: A Storytelling Company, with Watkins (Cross) set as showrunner and executive producer. Jaalen Best (All American: Homecoming) is set to play the titular role in the series. The Greatest will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. The Greatest intimately explores the incomparable life of Muhammad Ali. The amazing victories and defeats that made Ali a legend, both in and out of the ring, have been well documented and while those landmark events will live in The Greatest, the heartbeat of the story is fueled by all the moments that took place outside of the spotlight. The world remembers an icon, but The Greatest is about a man, a husband, a father, a brother, and a son. |
