Angelique Jackson NBA legends LeBron James and Dwyane Wade have teamed up once more — this time as executive producers and subjects of the new documentary “The Redeem Team,” which celebrates the victorious 2008 U.S.
Olympic Men’s Basketball team.Directed by Jon Weinbach (“The Last Dance”), the documentary marks the first collaboration between the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Netflix, as the project uses “unprecedented Olympic footage and behind-the-scenes material” to chronicle Team USA’s quest for Olympic gold at the 2008 games in Beijing.According to the documentary’s official logline, “The Redeem Team” tells the story of the 2008 squad’s journey as they followed the previous team’s shocking performance four years earlier in Athens, where they took home a bronze medal after winning gold in the previous three straight Olympic Games.
The film is said to offer “a fascinating portrait of team building” as it features interviews with the athletes and coaches, from Wade and James to Mike “Coach K” Krzyzewski, who reflect on how “The Redeem Team” set a new standard for American basketball. “In 2008, I played with heroes of mine, all stars, friends and future teammates,” stated Wade about his involvement in the project.
