Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is teaming up with American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson director Anthony Hemingway and Amazon Studios for the college football drama Work Horses.
“I’m extremely excited to delve into this world of class, power and justice with ex-journalist Matt King as our writer.”
“It speaks to the rigors of college athletics and the pressures and difficulties these young men face,” The Wire and Underground alum Hemingway said of the project.
The project marks Amazon’s continuing investment in one of America’s most popular sports, having had multiple documentaries and streaming NFL games during the week.
