Derek Jeter Is On The History Channel?
Pedro Martinez is a big analytics guy. Apparently, Derek Jeter is a big history guy. Jeter has tried different ventures after his playing career, but this one I’m not sure anybody saw coming. The former Yankees shortstop will produce two new shows for History Channel.
VIA Deadline:
“The Jeter-produced series History’s Greatest Warriors introduces viewers to a legendary fighter – from Samurai, Spartans, Delta Force, Navy SEALS, Vikings, highlighting the selection, training, weaponry, and combat expertise they used. Jeter is also behind The Icons that Built America.” From CAP 2 Productions and Blackfin, a division of Lionsgate’s Alternative Television group, the series centers on “the innovators, trailblazers, and risk-takers who pushed boundaries and redefined what it means to be a performer,” per the official logline. Subjects in the seven-episode series include daredevil Evel Knievel, martial artist and actor Bruce Lee, comedian Richard Pryor, radio host Howard Stern and hip-hop group N.W.A.“
Jeter’s production company, CAP 2 Productions, will produce two shows that are titled History’s Greatest Warriors and The Icons that Built America. It’s to be determined if Jeter will be actually in any of the footage but it seems like he will mostly be in the production part of the shows.
Feel free to comment below. Do you plan on tuning into these documentaries or will they turn into giant flops? Make your voice heard in the comments section. Let’s just hope these two shows are better than what he did while being an owner with the Miami Marlins!
