Apple Original Films has acquired a documentary feature film about NBA and Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry called “Underrated” that is being produced by A24 and “Black Panther” filmmaker Ryan Coogler, Apple announced on Wednesday.
The film, which was first announced back in August 2021, will be directed and produced by Peter Nicks (“The Force,” “Homeroom”) and produced by Coogler for his Proximity Media, as well as Curry’s own Unanimous Media. “Underrated” is being made under Unanimous Media’s first look production deal with A24.
“Underrated” will follow Curry’s historic success during the 2008 March Madness NCAA Tournament, as well as his record-shattering and game-changing playing style that turned him from an overlooked prospect to an NBA legend.
