More Than A Game


MUSIC INSPIRED BY THE FILM MORE THAN A GAME brings together an A-list line up of stellar artists. Mary J. Blige’s “Stronger,” is the first song to be released and is a heartfelt richly textured ballad that embodies the emotions that are revealed throughout this amazing film. Music from the film also delivers dynamic iconic songs that reinforce the messages of strength, loyalty and friendship that is exemplified in the film. It also boasts the debut single from one of today’s most sought after songwriters, Ester Dean who has written for the likes of Mary J Blige, Pussycat Dolls, and Keri Hilson.

MORE THAN A GAME opens in Los Angeles, New York and Cleveland on October 2nd. Five talented young basketball players from Akron, Ohio star in this remarkable true-life coming of age story about friendship and loyalty in the face of great adversity. Coached by a charismatic but inexperienced player’s father, and led by future NBA superstar LeBron James, the “Fab Five’s” improbable nine-year journey leads them from a decrepit inner-city gym to the doorstep of a national high school championship. Along the way, the close-knit team is repeatedly tested — both on and off the court — as pressures within, including James’ exploding worldwide celebrity, threaten to destroy everything they’ve set out to achieve together. MORE THAN A GAME, directed by Kristopher Belman, combines a series of unforgettable one-on-one interviews with rare news footage, never-before-seen home videos and personal family photographs to bring this heart-wrenching and wholly American story to life. ~Moxie
