GAME PLAN: The wendell brown story
After his pro football career ended, college star Wendell Brown moved to China to teach his beloved sport to youth abroad. But when the Detroit legend is assaulted at a 2016 party in the Yuzhong District, he’s the one charged with a crime. With little hope of being released by a court boasting a 99% conviction rate, Wendell must survive the Chinese prison system––one of thirty men in a cramped, single-toilet cell, and the sole Black man, American, and foreigner behind bars. He only manages to endure thanks to the fortitude football taught him—and the daring rescue mission by a group of strangers from around the world who organize through WeChat and take great risks to bring him home. The all new series "Game Plan: The Wendell Brown Story" premieres August 14th!
