Not found on any streaming service in your region.
Upcoming lesbian sports romance TV series adaptation of Meryl Wilsner's bestselling novel, produced by soccer icons Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird via their company, A Touch More. The show centers on a "rivals-to-lovers" romance between a veteran USWNT player and a rising young rookie, promising a high-stakes, queer, "smutty" drama similar to Ted Lasso meets A League of Their Own. The story centers on Grace Henderson, a veteran player struggling with trust, and Phoebe Matthews, a talented rookie, as they navigate their growing, often chaotic, romantic relationship while playing together on the U.S. Women’s National Team. While the book focuses heavily on the two leads (grumpy/sunshine trope), the series is expected to act as an ensemble dramedy centered on lesbian sports affairs, possibly under the title Playing The Field.
