Greek-Nigerian Basketballer unveils his debut documentary film ‘Giannis’

The Milwaukee Bucks player also disclosed that he is launching a new media company with his family called Improbable Media on X.

Antetokounmpo expressed his excitement, stating,“Proud to announce the launch of @ImprobableMedia with my family and our first feature-length production. It’s the true story about me and my family’s journey, and I can’t wait to share it with you. Premieres February 19th on @PrimeVideo.”

The documentary unravels Antetokounmpo’s path to fame as a professional basketball player. The documentary provides a close insight into the life of the two-time league MVP and the incredible track record that has earned him the Finals MVP award.

A news report reveals that the new business venture is a partnership between the basketball player, his brothers, and ESPN analyst and former NBA player, Jay Williams.

In July 2023, Antetokounmpo’s visit to Nigeria was chronicled in the homecoming docu-film. The documentary, in collaboration with WhatsApp, showcased the superstar’s return to his parent’s native country after 28 years abroad.

The athlete also revealed the release of the WhatsApp documentary via Prime Video and YouTube. “I’m ready to share this experience with you all through UGO, my homecoming documentary with @WhatsApp, now streaming on @primevideo and YouTube #TheresNoOneLikeUs,” he said.

In 2022, Walt Disney Pictures released a biographical sports drama film focusing on Antetokounmpo and two of his brothers titled, Rise. However, this documentary is the first time the family will provide any first-person accounts of their collective journey, making the new release a lot more unique than previous ones.
