Director Ben Affleck and pal Matt Damon have a new film about Basketball Great Michael Jordan called, AIR. Yesterday the premiere took place during the 2023 SXSW Conference and Festival in Austin, Texas. I hear the film has gotten great reviews and they received a standing ovation!
In attendance was actors Viola Davis, Jason Bateman, Chris Messina, Chris Tucker, Julius Tennon with writer Alex Convery, Producers Jeff Robinov, Jason Michael Berman, and Executive Producers Jordan Moldo, Jon Weinbach. I will be heading to a private screening and reception this evening plus tomorrow I get to sit down with Chris Tucker and talk about his role as Howard White in the film.

From award-winning director Ben Affleck, AIR reveals the unbelievable game-changing partnership between a then-rookie Michael Jordan and Nike’s fledgling basketball division which revolutionized the world of sports and contemporary culture with the Air Jordan brand. This moving story follows the career-defining gamble of an unconventional team with everything on the line, the uncompromising vision of a mother who knows the worth of her son’s immense talent, and the basketball phenom who would become the greatest of all time.
Matt Damon plays maverick Nike executive Sonny Vaccaro and Affleck plays Nike co-founder Phil Knight with Viola Davis as Deloris Jordan, Julius Tennon as James Jordan, Chris Tucker as Howard White, Jason Bateman as Rob Strasser, Chris Messina as David Falk, Marlon Wayans as George Raveling, and Matthew Maher as Peter Moore – among others.
