JAM TV is thrilled to announce its highly anticipated and third Australian Rules football related documentary series in two years, ‘Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW’ launched last night for streaming service Disney+. The docu-series is the first of nine Disney+ local original commissions in Australia to premiere on platform.

‘Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW’ adds to JAM TV’s line up of AFL-related productions, including the ‘Making Their Mark’ series, which followed the fortunes of six AFL clubs during the pandemic, and ‘Show Me The Money’, a deep dive into the intense, high pressure world of the AFL Trade period.

Cos Cardone, CEO of JAM TV, said: “Fearless has been an extraordinary collective effort across the business. From our dedicated production team that absolutely embraced the privilege of telling the stories of our incredible AFLW athletes, through to our post production team at Spark Post. Together they have produced an incredible journey for the audience. It’s been wonderful to work with the Disney+ team and we look forward to growing the partnership in the future with more exciting projects.”

A six-part series covering four clubs, produced over eight months by a committed crew of more than 120, led by series Executive Producer Anne-Maree Sparkman, ‘Fearless’ further cements JAM TV’s place as the leading producer of long form sporting documentary content for the world’s biggest streaming platforms.

Sparkman was equally excited to see ‘Fearless’ hit the screens for Disney+.

“These trailblazing women are utterly inspiring. The AFLW is at the forefront of celebrating diversity and inclusion, and this series explores their courageous journey and genuine sacrifice, as they pave the way for girls in the future.”

Kylie Watson-Wheeler, Senior Vice President and Managing Director for The Walt Disney Company in Australia and New Zealand, said: “Locally, The Walt Disney Company is putting an Australian & New Zealand stamp on Disney+ with local original commissions like this one.

“We’re thrilled to be working with highly experienced production teams and creatives across the country to reflect the richness and diversity of local storytelling and bringing familiar faces and places to our local and global audiences.

“This series is masterfully produced by JAM TV with an impressive crew of authentic and passionate storytellers who serve up this world-first look at the AFL Women’s Competition and the impressive group of athletes who chasing greatness – football glory – in their own unique ways.”
