[via press release from Disney+]

Australia's first locally commissioned content for Disney+, "Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW," premieres on the platform on 24 August 2022.

"Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW" takes viewers on a raw and emotional journey into the dreams, struggles and triumphs of the groundbreaking AFLW league. In this six part series, we discover the courageous pioneers who were told they could never play Australian Rules football at the highest level and made it happen.

From farmers to factory workers to paramedics, be amazed at the level of sacrifice and commitment required by this diverse group of athletes who are building an enduring legacy. The series spotlights four clubs - Adelaide Crows, Collingwood, GWS GIANTS and Western Bulldogs - with access to the game's inner sanctum, which is both confronting and inspiring. Cameras were rolling in April 2022 capturing the historic victory of the Adelaide Crows - taking their third AFLW premiership.

Kylie Watson-Wheeler, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of The Walt Disney Company in Australia and New Zealand, said: "Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW is the first of our nine Australian originals set to premiere this year and next. We're thrilled to be bringing to Disney+ this world-first look at the AFLW and the powerhouse movement it has become for women in sport. The documentary celebrates the journey of trailblazing women - some of the first to play Australian Rules Football professionally. The documentary showcases extraordinary women who are paving the way for future generations and chasing football glory in their own unique ways."

Kylie Rogers, Executive General Manager Customer & Commercial, AFL, said: "Over the last six seasons of the NAB AFLW competition, our remarkable W players have captured the hearts and minds of footy fans all over the world with the pure joy and determination in which they approach their footy.

"The Disney+ team captures the essence of AFLW in Fearless - it's a mixture of pure emotion, hard-hitting footy, and all the highs and lows that the world of football offers - and we get front-row seats to it all. We're thrilled to have worked with the Disney+ team in bringing this documentary series to life."

Executive Producer Anne-Maree Sparkman said: "It is always magical and a true honour to be invited into the inner sanctum, but none of us could have dared hope for the rich rewards of this documentary series.

"Following four teams over an entire season, we know everyone will be captivated by our footballers' dedication, bravery, humour and raw emotions," she added.

"Fearless: the Inside Story of the AFLW" is produced by Jam TV and directed by Michael Venables ("MasterChef Australia", "Australian Survivor"). Anne-Marie Sparkman (Executive Producer "Network Nine Wide World of Sports", "Paramedics", "Bondi Vet") serves as executive producer, with Becky Taylor as series producer.

"Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW" is the first of Disney+ Australia's local production slate for 2022/23, featuring nine titles spanning scripted drama, documentaries, lifestyle and factual entertainment genres.

"Fearless: The Inside Story of the AFLW" premieres 24 August on Disney+, with a new episode each week.
