The first trailer for Earvin’s highly anticipated “Magic” Johnson docuseries They Call Me Magic is here. The NBA legend spent thirteen seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers, where Johnson helped clinch the NBA championship and the Finals Most Valuable Player Award during his rookie season. The five-time NBA champion announced in 1991 that he contracted HIV, which catapulted the star into an activist role both on and off the pitch before officially stepping away from the 1996 NBA.
The docuseries will feature interviews with Johnson’s famed rival Larry Bird alongside Michael Jordan, Shaquille O’Neil, Dwayne Wade, Jerry West, Cookie Johnson, EJ Johnson, Snoop Dogg, Samuel L. Jackson, LL Cool J, the president Barack Obama, Fred Stabley Jr., Michael Wilbon and others. With the hype surrounding HBO’s latest scripted series Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty, focusing on Johnson and the 1980s Lakers, Apple TV +’s April 22 release date for They Call Me Magic will be perfect for fans of one of the greatest sports dynasties the world has ever seen.
