First there was “The Last Dance,” and now the Lakers take the stage for the encore.
The team announced Monday that a nine-part documentary series will air on Hulu in 2022. The project will be helmed by Lakers owner Jeanie Buss and filmmaker Antoine Fuqua.
According to a release issued by the team, the series will cover the last four decades of Lakers basketball and feature former coaches Pat Riley and Phil Jackson as well as team legends like Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Shaquille O’Neal. The release also promises never-before-seen interview footage from late owner Jerry Buss.
