UNTOLD pulls back the curtain on epic, enthralling sports stories, from Jake Paul’s journey as a YouTube star turned professional boxer to Manti Te’o’s remarkable college football career that was overshadowed by the tale of a girlfriend who didn’t exist.

The next batch of stories in the acclaimed series includes UNTOLD: The Fall of Favre. The tell-all documentary unpacks the life of Brett Favre, best known as the Green Bay Packers superstar quarterback who nabbed three NFL MVPs and led his team to a Super Bowl championship. But Favre also had a pattern of unchecked behavior off the field, including an explicit text message scandal and involvement in a massive welfare fraud scheme.

Premieres May 20
UNTOLD: The Fall of Favre directed by Rebecca Gitlitz, executive produced by Ian Orefice, Rebecca Gitlitz, Jonna McLaughlin, Amanda Spain, Dave O’Connor, Loren Hammonds, Jon Wertheim, A.J. Perez, Ben Silverman, Howard Owens, Chapman Way, and Maclain Way, produced by EverWonder Studio, Front Office Sports, and Time Studios.

“I’ve always been drawn to the stories filled with nuance and complexity, and when it comes to sports biggest stars, what’s on the other side of fame?” Gitlitz says. She adds, “The UNTOLD series has shown time and time again that they are willing to tell unfiltered stories no matter the depth.

“So, making this film on Brett Favre for this series felt like the worlds were aligning. This story about one of the greatest quarterbacks in history goes beyond touchdowns and epic wins and lifts the lid on how when fame rises, sometimes accountability falls. It was made with the intention of laying out patterns of behaviors, told from the people who lived with the consequences of Favre’s actions, to ask audiences to consider if success should be a shield for harmful behavior. Ultimately, the film challenges all of us to consider when we let our heroes go too far, who is to blame? And when the dust settles, can we have honest conversations about the humanity of all of those involved.”
