It is official, Arsenal Football Club will be the next topic of Amazon’s “All or Nothing” documentary series. According to the club, there are crucial details that are yet to be confirmed, but according to the club, the job is nearly done.
The series will follow the north London club throughout the 2021-22 season, with the club seeking to improve on a dismal 2020-21 season in which they finished in a disappointing eighth in the Premier League and were eliminated in the quarterfinals of the Europa League.
The gunners’ fans worldwide, including sports betting enthusiasts, will be hopeful of a better campaign in the upcoming season.
The documentary will also look into the lives of some of Arsenal players off the field, including England’s breakthrough star Bukayo Saka, who has excelled throughout the team’s run to the Euro 2020 final.
The series follows the previous edition, which was shot at Arsenal’s fierce North London rivals Tottenham Hotspur and chronicled then-manager Jose Mourinho’s tumultuous and ultimately disastrous reign. The franchise presently includes three soccer teams along with several American football clubs and the New Zealand national rugby team and, soon, the Toronto Maple Leafs ice hockey team.
The coming season is an opportunity for Arsenal to produce better performances on the pitch, and to get back to playing in continental assignments. All EPL matches will be available for wagering on the Betway platform,
72 Films will produce All or Nothing: Arsenal, with Mark Raphael, Clare Cameron, and three-time BAFTA winner John Douglas serving as executive producers. The series is expected to premiere exclusively on Amazon Prime in 2022.
“Arsenal will take our fans behind the curtain during a crucial season as we focus our efforts on challenging for domestic success and returning to elite European competition,” said the club in an official statement.
“As well as capturing the highs and lows of life at the Emirates Stadium and our training centre, the All or Nothing cameras will follow our squad away from the pitch to examine the daily challenges faced by elite athletes, the work we do in our local and global communities and what connects the Arsenal family and our special club.”
“We are looking forward to giving our fans around the world a unique insight into how we work day to day. We have one of the biggest global followings in the game and one consistent thing we hear from fans is their desire to see more about what happens behind closed doors at the club,” said Mark Gonnella, Arsenal’s Media and Communications Director. “All or Nothing will give our fans and sport lovers an opportunity to learn more about what makes Arsenal such a special club, our trophy laden history and our ambitions for future success.”
“Arsenal is a historic club going through a fascinating period, and we can’t wait to take viewers behind-the-scenes on the journey of this crucial season,” said Head of UK Originals, Amazon Studios Dan Grabiner. “All or Nothing is about intimate access to the passion and commitment behind elite sport, and in Arsenal we have the perfect subject for the next chapter. We are looking forward to Prime members around the world experiencing another Premier League season with a new club, through All or Nothing’s signature quality storytelling and access.”
“We’re excited to have the opportunity to go behind the scenes at Arsenal to capture the exhilaration and drama of a unique season at the club,” said 72 Films’ Executive Producer Clare Cameron. “The opportunity to get close-up access to a squad of talented young players, both on and off the pitch, see the return of the fans to football and understand what makes Arsenal such an iconic club, will make for a compelling All or Nothing series.”
The documentary is a welcome contribution to football, not only from Arsenal as a club but also from all football fans worldwide. As we look forward to the release, you can bet on preseason friendlies currently going on in different parts of the globe with Betway.
