Do you remember the animated online series “The Lebrons” from back in 2011. Pretty funny stuff, huh? Well it looks like King James is working his way back into entertainment and this time taking his talents off of your computer screens and in to your living rooms.
Lebron James is planning to team up with STARZ to develop a new sitcom called “Survivor’s Remorse.” “The scripted television show will follow two friends who find success — one in the NBA, one in the business world — and “explore the complexity, comedy and drama of an experience that everyone reads about, but few understand — what truly happens when you make it out. It is loosely based on him and his childhood friend, Maverick Carter. Sounds a bit like HBO’s popular “Entourage” doesn’t it?
“We are incredibly excited at Starz to work with such a deep bench of talented storytellers to develop ‘Survivor’s Remorse,’” said [Starz Chief Executive Officer Chris] Albrecht. “Everyone involved brings something unique to the table — from Tom Werner’s legendary television success to LeBron’s extraordinary life experiences and point of view. We hope that ‘Survivor’s Remorse’ will bring the humor, pain and complexity of these characters to life in a way that is honest and compelling for audiences worldwide.”
