Cutler directs, and five-time World Series champion Derek Jeter executive produces alongside Imagine Entertainment's Ron Howard and Brian Grazer Imagine Documentaries, This Machine and Cap 2 Productions produce in partnership with Major League Baseball

Today, Apple TV+ announced the first all-access docuseries exploring the dramatic, high-stakes world of Major League Baseball's (MLB) World Series and each team's battle to capture the most storied trophy in American sports, a World Series Championship. The new three-part documentary event offers a never-before-seen view while highlighting all of the most powerful moments of the 2024 World Series. With exclusive access to behind-the-scenes coverage, including interviews with players, coaches, fans, journalists and family members, the series takes fans through the unforgettable milestones on each team's journey.

The project is produced in partnership with MLB and award-winning Imagine Documentaries (Apple's "The Dynasty: New England Patriots" and "The Super Models"), R.J. Cutler's acclaimed This Machine, a part of Sony Pictures Television (Apple's "Billie Eilish: The World's a Little Blurry," "Dear... ," "Martha," "Elton John: Never Too Late"), and five-time World Series champion and executive producer Derek Jeter, alongside his production company, Cap 2 Productions. The series, directed by Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Cutler, is currently in production. Executive producers are Jeter, Brian Grazer, Ron Howard, Cutler, Nick Trotta, Justin Wilkes, Sara Bernstein, Marc Gilbar, Mark Blatty, Trevor Smith and Justin Yungfleisch.

Apple TV+ just completed its third season as the exclusive home of "Friday Night Baseball," a weekly doubleheader streaming exclusively to Apple TV+ subscribers every Friday night throughout the MLB regular season. Baseball fans in 60 countries and territories enjoy a custom production of these two marquee weekly matchups with no local broadcast restrictions.

The currently untitled Major League Baseball docuseries joins Apple's expanding offering of nonfiction programming featuring the biggest stories in sports, including "The Dynasty: New England Patriots," a documentary event series about the New England Patriots, from Brian Grazer and Ron Howard's Imagine Documentaries; "Messi's World Cup: The Rise of a Legend," the first official and definitive account of Messi's sensational career with Argentina's national football team and his five FIFA World Cup appearances, including his 2022 win; "Stephen Curry: Underrated," the remarkable coming-of-age story of one of the most influential, dynamic and unexpected players in the history of basketball, Stephen Curry; and, the currently untitled film on the groundbreaking life and career of seven-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton; among many others.

MLB has long-chronicled World Series championships through the official World Series films, dating back to 1943 when the U.S. State Department commissioned Major League Baseball to produce a recap of the World Series for troops overseas. MLB's multi-platform media and licensing projects - produced under the League's MLB Studios Label - span film, television and digital distribution, including diverse and pioneering programming that taps an expansive media archive to cover historical and cultural subjects.

Apple TV+ offers premium, compelling drama and comedy series, feature films, groundbreaking documentaries, and kids and family entertainment, and is available to watch across all of a user's favorite screens. After its launch on November 1, 2019, Apple TV+ became the first all-original streaming service to launch around the world, and has premiered more original hits and received more award recognitions faster than any other streaming service in its debut. To date, Apple Original films, documentaries and series have earned 517 wins and 2,321 award nominations and counting, including multi-Emmy Award-winning comedy "Ted Lasso" and historic Oscar Best Picture winner "CODA."
