'BREAKING GLASS: THE PAT SUMMITT STORY' TO PREMIERE WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25, ON HULU, SUNDAY, MARCH 29, ON ESPN2 AND SUNDAY, APRIL 5, ON ESPN

Award-Winning Director Dawn Porter and 'Good Morning America' Co-Anchor Robin Roberts Deliver a Powerful Portrait of Pat Summitt, the Hall of Fame Coach and Eight-Time National Champion Who Redefined Women's College Basketball and Inspired a Generation of Women

The Biopic Is Produced by Rock'n Robin Productions, Trilogy Films and Tribeca Studios for ABC News Studios

Pat Summitt, the Hall of Fame women's basketball coach who made history and inspired generations of women, is the subject of a new documentary. "Breaking Glass: The Pat Summitt Story," from award-winning director Dawn Porter (director, "Sing Sing Chronicles"; winner of the 2025 Emmy(R) Award for Best Documentary) and "Good Morning America" co-anchor and executive producer Robin Roberts, is set to premiere Wednesday, March 25, on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers, Sunday, March 29, on ESPN2 and Sunday, April 5, on ESPN. With the intimacy of a biopic built on never-before-seen archival footage and set against the world of sports, the film profiles the extraordinary women's college basketball coach who forever changed the game and whose boundary-breaking career impacted far beyond the court.

Featuring firsthand interviews with those who knew her best, including fellow coaches, players, family and friends, as well as rare interviews with Summitt herself, alongside Billie Jean King, Peyton Manning, Dawn Staley, Tamika Catchings and others, the film underscores how her influence extended far beyond the basketball court, shaping generations of athletes and redefining leadership in women's sports. From her upbringing on a Tennessee dairy farm, where humble beginnings forged the toughness that defined her career, to her record-setting run at the University of Tennessee, the film chronicles both her triumphs and the profound challenges she faced, including her diagnosis with Alzheimer's disease.

"I am grateful to Rock'n Robin Productions, Trilogy Films, Tribeca Studios and ABC News Studios for making this happen," said Tyler Summitt, son of Pat Summitt and co-founder of the Summitt Mindset. "Robin was one of my mom's closest friends, and there is nobody my family trusts more to lead this project."

"Breaking Glass: The Pat Summitt Story" is produced by Rock'n Robin Productions, Trilogy Films and Tribeca Studios for ABC News Studios. The film is directed by Dawn Porter and produced by Clare Smith Marash for Trilogy Films. Robin Roberts and Reni Calister serve as executive producers for Rock'n Robin Productions, and Berry Welsh and Jane Rosenthal for Tribeca Studios. David Sloan is senior executive producer, and Claire Weinraub is executive producer for ABC News Studios.
