Michael Jordan will be returning to the world of film – and it won’t be in Space Jam 2.
According to a press release, The Last Dance will be a 10-part documentary series profiling His Airness which will be a joint production of ESPN Films and Netflix.
Directed by Jason Hehir and produced by Mike Tollin, the anthology will focus on Jordan’s career and the state of the NBA in general when he was playing with the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s.
After the official announcement, the ESPN Films 30 for 30 account teased the doc on Twitter.
