Development

On August 13, 2021, it was announced that FX had ordered a new spin-off limited series American Sports Story. It's based on the podcast, Gladiator: Aaron Hernandez and Football Inc. from The Boston Globe and Wondery, will focus on the rise and fall of former NFL player Aaron Hernandez.[9] Specifically, the series will explore the disparate strands of Hernandez's identity, his family, his career, his suicide and their legacy in sports and American culture,[1] and will be titled Gladiator: American Sports Story.[10]

Casting

By January 2023, John Landgraf stated that the series was "heading toward production" as there was a "fairly complete set of scripts" from Stu Zicherman, although no premiere date was set.[11] In November 2023, it was reported that Josh Andrés Rivera, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Lindsay Mendez, Tony Yazbeck, Jake Cannavale, and Catfish Jean had joined the cast.[2][3][4][5][6]

Filming

Principal photography began on April 3, 2023, in Jersey City, New Jersey.[10] Filming was suspended in July due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike, [12] and resumed in December. Filming continued further in March 2024 in Orlando Florida at Camping World Stadium.[citation needed]

Release

American Sports Story will be released on FX.[9]
