Michael Jordan’s footwear collaboration with Nike permanently revolutionised the firm, and his shoe line is now one of its most popular assets. The trailer for Amazon Studios’ forthcoming biopic AIR, which chronicles the narrative of how the cooperation came to be, has been released.
Ben Affleck directs the picture, and he also acts with an all-star ensemble that includes Matt Damon, Jason Bateman, Marlon Wayans, Chris Messina, Chris Tucker, and Viola Davis. The two-minute teaser, which was published on Thursday (Feb. 9), features Nike employees debating how to improve their company’s faltering basketball business.
Matt Damon’s character suggests they team up with then-NBA rookie MJ, who was picked by the Chicago Bulls in 1984. Some of his teammates were hesitant to invest in a player who had yet to play, but Damon’s character believed in him. In one scene, he is shown travelling to the home of the six-time NBA Champion to meet with his parents and establish their business connection.
Later in the teaser, Davis, who plays Jordan’s mother, expresses her son’s capacity to be a great NBA player and push Nike to the next level. “A shoe is just a shoe,” Damon’s character says over the phone to Davis’ character.
“Until my son steps into it,” she replies.
The biography combines comedy and drama while depicting a high-stakes venture for the well-known sports brand. AIR will be released in cinemas in April.
