Gotham Chopra is an award-winning filmmaker at the forefront of the
convergence of sports, science and spirituality. As the creator and
co-founder of “The Religion of Sports,” an Emmy® Award-winning
content and media company based in Los Angeles, Gotham has worked with
some of the most elite athletes in the world including Tom Brady
(“Tom v Time,” and “Man in the Arena”), Kobe Bryant (“Kobe
Bryant’s Muse”), Lebron James (“Shut Up and Dribble”), Stephen
Curry (“Stephen v The Game”), Simone Biles (“Simone v
Herself”), Alex Morgan and Usain Bolt (“Greatness Code”), Shohei
Otani (“Searching for Shohei”), Conor McGregor (“McGregor
Forever”) , Serena Williams (“In the Arena: Serena Williams”)
and many more to produce content that pushes the boundaries of
nonfiction cinema and brings the mythos of sports to a broad audience
outside of those that simply follow the games. In addition to
legendary athletes, Chopra’s Religion of Sports has launched
projects with such pop-culture icons as Trevor Noah (“World
According to Football”), Bill Simmons (“Destination NBA: A G
League Odyssey”) and others. Beyond box scores, wins and losses, and
stats and sabermetrics, Chopra’s brand of sports storytelling leans
into the essence of human potential, the dramatic peaks and valleys of
competition and athletic achievement, and the heroic narratives that
accompany both triumph and failure. Since ROS launched it has garnered
(five) Sports Emmy Awards and has acquired Jiva Maya, a UK-based
studio, taking the company global. The company has also produced
captivating content for both Under Armour and Nike. Most recently,
Chopra released a new book called “Religion of Sports: Navigating
the Trials of Life Through the Games We Love” (Simon & Schuster).
