Though there hasn’t been any sports news surfacing on ESPN because every sport has been cancelled indefinitely, the documentaries are still coming. There have been rumors that Michael Jordan‘s The Last Dance documentary was coming earlier than its June 2020 ABC/ESPN premiere, but it has been confirmed its not. Even after all the commercials they’ve been showing lately.
Bad news. Doesn't look like ESPN will move up release of 'The Last Dance' Michael Jordan Bulls doc: 'The reality is that the production of that film has not yet been completed, so we are limited there at the moment. Obviously, you can’t air it until it’s done,' says Burke Magnus.
