As the 2025 Major League Baseball season gets underway, Apple TV Plus brings fans an unprecedented look back at last season's Fall Classic between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the New York Yankees in Fight for Glory: 2024 World Series.
The three-part docuseries, which features an all-star lineup of executive producers including Ron Howard, Brian Grazer and Derek Jeter, offers unprecedented access behind the scenes from the lead-up to the big game to the event itself.
The 2024 World Series might have seemed like an almost clean sweep by the Dodgers after they won the first three games, but the Yankees battled back in Game 4 to force a Game 5. The docuseries pulls back the curtain at what was happening on and off the field as the race to claim the championship played out.
"Our goal was to make a truly cinematic experience that celebrates the drama, emotion and beauty of baseball at its highest-stakes moment: the World Series," director RJ Cutler (Martha, Elton John: Never Too Late) said in a press release. "We wanted to put the audience right in the guts of this story — the tension, the triumph, the heartbreak. As in life, the game of baseball is never over until the final out — you feel that in this series and your heart pounds with every twist and turn."
"Fight for Glory: 2024 World Series brings fans inside that journey like never before, capturing the intensity, sacrifices and defining moments that make this game so special," adds Jeter. "As someone who has lived these moments firsthand, I’m proud to help share this story and give viewers an unprecedented look at what it truly takes to compete on baseball’s biggest stage."
