Netflix Sprints Into New Sports Series Tracking the World's Fastest Human

Netflix is in production on a new sports documentary series tracking top sprinters from countries including the United States, Jamaica, the United Kingdom, Ivory Coast, Kenya and Italy.

Synopsis: Following athletes from all over the world, this series delves deep into the psyches of those elite competitors who train to be the fastest person on the planet. We take an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the high stakes, and mental toughness of the sprinters who devote their entire lives to crossing the finish line in record time, where their professional futures are decided in just fractions of a second.

The Netflix Sports Series is set to premiere in Summer 2024 as they conclude shooting at World Championships this month.

Format: 6x45 minute episodes

Production Company: Box to Box Films (Full Swing, Drive to Survive, Break Point)

Executive Producers: Paul Martin, James Gay-Rees and Warren Smith of Box to Box Films.

"We're delighted that Netflix has chosen to turn a spotlight onto the lives of the fastest people on Earth. It takes a special talent, both physically and mentally, to succeed in a world where your fate is decided in just ten seconds. As Muhammad Ali said: "The fight is won or lost far away from the witnesses, behind the lines, in the gym and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights." The same applies to our athletes and we can think of no better partner than Netflix to give our fans new insight into the fascinating high-intensity world of sprinters as they prepare to take their shot at glory at the World Championships." - World Athletics president Sebastian Coe.

This series joins Netflix's lineup of sports programming, including Drive To Survive, Full Swing, Break Point, Untold, Quarterback and more.
