Today in Tha Wire ESPN and Netflix are gearing up to chronicle the life of sports icon, Michael Jordan, in the 10-part docu-series The Last Dance. The series will start in the beginning and following his life timeline, how he developed into the greatest basketball player of all time, his historic professional sports career with the Chicago Bulls in the 1990s, winning six NBA championships, the countless MVP trophies, playing at the Olympics, his retirement and more.

ESPN reports the doc will be a treat for Jordan fans of all ages featuring exclusive interviews with his former teammates like Scottie Pippen, and Dennis Rodman, including clips of more than 500 hours of never before seen footage. Peep the trailer below to feel of what to come:

I can't wait to see this myself! It's certainly going to be something no one will want to miss. By the way, the documentary was originally scheduled to premiere in 2019, but it's reportedly been pushed back to 2020. There's certainly a lot of ground to cover, so if they need a little extra time to perfect the series one can't be mad at that. I'll keep you posted on a date for the debut, in the meantime, it looks like the film will simulcast on both networks when it comes out.
