Ben Stiller is continuing his celebration of the New York Knicks’ historic championship win with a new documentary.
On Wednesday, the Severance director announced the forthcoming multi-part documentary series, in partnership with the NBA, HBO, and A24, on Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart’s Roommates Show.
“Obviously, I’ve been shooting some stuff on my phone,” Stiller told the hosts. “But it’s going to be about all eras of the Knicks, and this team obviously, there’s a culmination here, of something that’s been going on for a long time. It’s super exciting. It’s great to have had all this access to your team, which is great. We’re going to probably be shooting a little bit more during next season, and I’m going to hit you guys up for some interviews.”
When Brunson asked about a timeline, Stiller said they’ll be “working on it” over the “next year.”
Stiller also tweeted about the news and shared a photo of fans celebrating the team’s first NBA title in 53 years.
According to Variety, Stiller is set to direct the series, which will “trace the full arc of the franchise from the ’90s to the improbable, record-breaking run that finally returned a championship to New York.”
The Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA Finals, winning the series in five games. The last time the New York team took home the title was in 1973 against the Los Angeles Lakers.
