Angel City Trailer Is Out, Based On LA Female Soccer Team

Mumbai, 5th May 2023 (Newshelpline) - HBO drops the official trailer for a documentary series titled Angel City, all about the creation of a soccer team in Los Angeles.

Executive produced by Academy Award-winners Natalie Portman, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, and Jimmy Chin, Angel City is a gripping 3-part documentary-series that goes behind the scenes and onto the pitch of the ground-breaking Los Angeles-based professional women's soccer team, the Angel City Football Club.

Founded in 2020 by actor Natalie Portman, venture capitalist Kara Nortman and gaming entrepreneur Julie Uhrman, ACFC breaks the mould by being the largest majority female ownership group in professional sports and includes 14 former US Women’s National Team players as investors.

The series pulls back the curtain on the origin story through the 2022 inaugural season, and candidly reveals the passion and grit needed to build a franchise from scratch. While the athletes and coaching staff contend with training facility challenges and unexpected injuries, the club is tasked with filling the stadium and proving to the world that you can lead with passion & purpose and still turn a profit.

As philosophies are debated and performance expectations aren’t met, the club must cope with the growing pains of a startup, begging the question: can this new ACFC model succeed both on and off the pitch?

Helmed by Arlene Nelson, the series starts streaming on Max from 16th May 2023.
