A new trailer has been released for Fight for Glory: 2024 World Series, the three-part documentary coming to Apple TV+ later this month.
Directed by filmmaker R.J. Cutler and executive produced by five-time World Series champion Derek Jeter, Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, the series takes viewers deeper than ever into the sporting highlight, capturing the intensity, drama, and defining moments of the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees as they reignite one of baseball’s most storied rivalries in pursuit of a World Series Championship.
With special access to players and managers, the series promises to bring both new and die-hard baseball fans “an unforgettable journey” through the 2024 World Series.
R.J. Cutler said, “Our goal was to make a truly cinematic experience that celebrates the drama, emotion and beauty of baseball at its highest-stakes moment: The World Series.
“ W wanted to put the audience right in the guts of this story – the tension, the triumph, the heartbreak. As in life, the game of baseball is never over until the final out— you feel that in this series and your heart pounds with every twist and turn.”
Ron Howard added: “As a lifelong baseball fan, I recognize the inherent drama in almost any MLB game, but with the Dodgers and Yankees in a World Series matchup and the remarkable director R.J. Cutler covering every aspect of the clash between these two great franchises, I knew it would yield a world-class documentary.”
The project was produced for Apple TV+ in partnership with MLB Studios and Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Documentaries, R.J. Cutler’s Emmy-Award Winning This Machine, a part of Sony Pictures Television, and five-time World Series champion and executive producer Derek Jeter, alongside his production company, CAP 2 Productions.
