Another sports and cultural icon is getting a scripted series based on their life, this time at Amazon. I can't think of anyone more deserving than Mohamed Ali for this type of ongoing series. An American sports version of THE CROWN. It feels like the dominance of sports documentaries and live sports broadcasting is pushing this trend forward in the scripted space. I can't wait to watch this series and see who may be the next sports icon to warrant a scripted series. What other sports icons would make meaningful ongoing scripted series? https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/muhammad-ali-tv-series-the-...

If anyone knows if this is a good idea, it is going to be Sam Sokolow

Spike Lee has been trying to make a Jackie Robinson movie for 30+ years. Maybe a limited tv series will work
