Ethan Shanfeld A documentary centered on Miami quarterback Cam Ward is in production from Firebrand Media. The doc will be a part of a 10-episode series titled “Zero Star,” about thriving athletes who were once considered “zero star” recruits, meaning they were unranked and unscouted.
Ward, who was a high school athlete with only one college offer, is now the superstar QB for University of Miami and a top candidate for this year’s Heisman Trophy. “Being overlooked, in my shoes it was a blessing and a curse.
The blessing part is that you have nothing to lose,” Ward says in “Zero Star.” The docuseries will include 10 episodes, each one focusing on a different “zero star” athlete.
Ward is the focus of the premiere episode, which will have a runtime of approximately 75-90 minutes, while the subsequent episodes in development will run between 45 and 50 minutes.
