Storytelling has become the equivalent of gold in today’s digital era. Every brand, team, franchise, and personality is looking to tell its story in a manner that can attract the masses, which is why we can see an increased number of documentaries and series that revolve around the lives of famous personalities.
Paul Pogba is the latest to join this long list of sporting personalities with their own titles on major streaming platforms. The Manchester United star has signed a deal with Amazon for a docu-series that will be titled ‘The Pogmentary’.
Pogba will speak about his life, his aspirations, and the obstacles that he had to face in his rise to the summit of world football. It will also feature interviews of people who are close to him. The French international has won a huge collection of trophies with his national squad as well as his local team. He set the transfer market on fire as he had become one of the most expensive transfers of his time, and his influence is far beyond the pitch.
Paul Pogba has had his naysayers from time to time, but Pogba has shown them his capabilities on several occasions. Many of the sports personalities are role models for younger children, and getting to know more about their personal lives and professional struggles can be a big thing for these youngsters. We have very recently heard the news about the likes of David Beckham and Serena Williams also bagging deals with other major giants to share their personal and professional stories on screen. Many teams have also struck deals with digital platforms to film and capture the soul and essence of the club.
‘The Pogmentary’ will tentatively be available worldwide in 2022
