The trailer for Stephen Curry: Underrated, an Apple Original Films documentary about Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry, was released ahead of its July 21, 2023 debut. Emmy Award winner Peter Nicks directed and produced the film, which will be shown in select theaters and globally on Apple TV+.
The story of Stephen Curry is one of an underdog emerging victorious as a top dog. The basketball scouts and critics never predicted that Curry, who was "undersized" at 6'2, would become the tremendous force he is today. The documentary shows that even the underdog can achieve greatness - in Curry's case, four NBA championships.
"How did I get here?" Curry asks in the trailer. "I was the undersized scrawny kid that was just trying to figure out how to make it. I was overwhelmed by everything. How would I respond?"
The documentary was brought to life by Peter Nicks, Academy Award nominee Ryan Coogler, Erick Peyton, Sean Havey, Ben Cotner, and Marissa Torres Ericson. Emily Osborne, Sev Ohanian, and Zinzi Coogler served as executive producers.
Curry returned to Davidson College, a small Division 1 school in North Carolina where he played his collegiate basketball, in 2022 to obtain the degree he left college early to pursue an NBA career. His father, Dell, was drafted into the NBA and Stephen was drafted number seven overall by the Golden State Warriors, with whom he has remained throughout his entire NBA career.
In early 2022, after Curry earned his bachelor's degree in sociology from Davidson, he was unable to attend graduation as he was busy winning his fourth NBA title. To commemorate his achievements, the school welcomed him back in August 2022 to receive his diploma and to retire the jersey number he wore while playing at Davidson. Curry became the first athlete in Davidson's history to receive this honor.
