Jupiter Entertainment has entered a first-look production deal with Kickback Soccer Media for original soccer content.<\/p>\n
\u201cKickback Soccer Media was founded by an unprecedented collective of the homegrown voices and creatives who\u2019ve spent decades striving for a bigger, more inclusive soccer fan community,\u201d said John Parker, Kickback CEO. \u201cThis partnership with Jupiter establishes an even more ambitious collaboration for Kickback, that pairs our unparalleled authenticity and access with Jupiter\u2019s premium storytelling capabilities, positioning this partnership to galvanize American soccer\u2019s fandom through these two massive years.\u201d<\/p>\n
Under the deal, Jupiter will have first-look rights on original soccer concepts developed with Kickback, expanding its slate as soccer\u2019s cultural momentum accelerates in the U.S. ahead of the 2026 and 2027 FIFA World Cups.<\/p>\n
\u201cSoccer is no longer an emerging sport in the U.S. It\u2019s fully here and ranks as the third most popular sport nationwide and the second most popular among fans under 40. We see a significant opportunity to tell stories that resonate with this rapidly growing audience\u2014one that is seeking context and meaning beyond the matches,\u201d said Patrick Reardon, president of Jupiter Entertainment. \u201cOur partnership with Kickback brings unmatched credibility, insight and access, enabling us to deliver authentic content as the country prepares to host the world\u2019s largest-ever sporting event.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
