Tom Brady’s sechster Super Bowl Titel sollte nicht nur sein Vermächtnis unter den größten Athleten aller Zeiten sichern, es war auch, das geplante Ende seiner Facebook-Dokumentation „Tom vs. Time“.
Aber, wie wir alle wissen, streuten die Philadelphia Eagles Sand ins Getriebe und schlugen die New England Patriots im Super Bowl LII. Der Regisseur des Dokumentarfilms, Gotham Chopra sah sich nach der Niederlage gezwungen das Projekt „anzuhalten“, während sie sich einen neuen Ansatz zur sechsten Episode überlegen.
Chopra veröffentlichte am Freitag ein Statement, in der er die Verzögerung und seine neuen Pläne zum Abschluss der Doku-Serie erläuterte.
Everyone keeps asking me about Chapter 6 of ‚Tom vs. Time‘ and when it’s going to be ready. The truth is we had a plan, but unconsciously, it was tied to the Pats winning the Super Bowl and, when that didn’t happen (congrats, Eagles!), I felt like we needed to pause and recalibrate. While we have amazing stuff from the playoff run, Tom’s hand injury and the great comeback in the AFC Championship, once the Super Bowl played out, I started to wonder the relevance of all that other stuff and determined that we really needed one final exit interview with our guy before we could figure out what Chapter 6 was truly going to be about. This morning, we did that interview. It ran over an hour and we talked about a lot of things. I’m not gonna give anything away … but for curious minds, Tom was both reflective and upbeat, very present and disappointed in last Sunday’s loss, while also gracious toward the Eagles for their impressive victory and already unpacking everything to find a lesson in it. As a fan, I can say I got some great closure and I hope Tom did too in just talking about it. I can tell he’s burning up still on the inside. But I am also reminded why the guy is the GOAT and it’s all gonna be OK. So, Chapter 6 — ‚Coming Soon!'“
