After Magic Johnson and Larry Bird ruled the 1980s and ushered in the modern NBA, Michael Jordan took over in the 1990s, winning six titles and becoming not just the greatest basketball player of all time but one of the most thrilling athletes in any sport ever. And now you can relive his sixth and final championship season with the Chicago Bulls in The Last Dance, a 10-part documentary that starts Sunday, April 19 on ESPN.
The highly anticipated saga was originally scheduled to debut in June around the time of the NBA Finals, but with sports and everything else at a standstill due to coronavirus, ESPN moved up its release. Two episodes will air each Sunday evening, from April 19 to May 17. The Last Dance will be shown on ESPN for US viewers and Netflix for those outside the US.
The documentary is directed by Jason Hehir, who is no stranger to 1990s basketball icons. He helmed The Fab Five documentary about the Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team that started five freshmen in the 1991-92 season.
The Last Dance will combine present-day interviews with archival footage from the 1997-98 NBA season that's never been seen. Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf, head coach Phil Jackson and Jordan agreed to let an NBA Entertainment crew film the team during the season, which turned out to be the last season of the Bulls' dynasty. In addition to Jordan, the 1997-98 team featured Hall of Famers Scottie Pippen and Dennis Rodman, as well as key reserve Steve Kerr, who is now the head coach of the Golden State Warriors.
