Fusing their talent-forward platform with our capabilities will enable us to nurture the next generation of sports storytelling and set the bar for excellence.

Shadow Lion brings unmatched talent, creativity, and agility. Together, we'll inspire fans by telling the stories that will become tomorrow's legends.

Shadow Lion serves as a unique bridge between the worlds of advertising and entertainment, with a creative production studio that builds brands, talent ventures and original programming all under one roof.

The collaboration is already running at full speed, with several high-profile initiatives in production and development, including the definitive docuseries on the University of Michigan's football program, with Brady and Jim Harbaugh serving as Executive Producers and Shadow Lion handling production services.

Our team at Shadow Lion and FOX Sports share an extraordinary love for sports, storytelling and the fan experience, and this partnership aims to deliver more of that, said Tom Brady. We're starting with Michigan because it shaped me and it will shape the direction of this partnership. Fan-first, done right, every single time. That's the vision, he added.

Other tentpole productions include the recently announced Fanatics Flag Football Classic, a groundbreaking, celebrity flag football event at Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, produced by Shadow Lion, OBB Media, and Fanatics.

Several additional projects are in various stages of development and will be announced in detail at a later date.
