Ballers,
“the next great HBO series” (Crave Online) which has become the
network’s biggest comedy in a decade, is set to make its Home
Entertainment debut on June 14, 2016. Starring Dwayne Johnson, the
“funny, fast moving” comedy (Entertainment Weekly) follows a group of
past and present football players trying to figure out where the game
ends and life begins, all while keeping their cool and having each
other’s backs. Ballers: The Complete First Season will be available to
own on Blu-ray with Digital HD ($19.95) and DVD ($14.95) and includes
behind-the-scenes looks into all ten episodes.
Spencer
Strasmore (Johnson) is a retired football superstar who is trying to
reinvent himself as a financial manager for current players in
sun-soaked Miami. His inner circle includes Ricky (John David
Washington, former pro-football player), a talented but volatile wide
receiver who seeks to balance his off-field antics with his passion for
the game; Charles (Omar Miller), a reluctantly retired lineman who's
finding it hard to adjust to civilian life; and Vernon (Donovan Carter),
a player with a rookie contract, whose promise never to forget “where
he came from” brings scores of hangers-on into his life, and lands him
in big financial trouble. Though they're pros when it comes to playing
the game, each one has a harder time navigating life off the field.
Other
series regulars include Troy Garity, Rob Corddry, London Brown and
Jazmyn Simon. Ballers was created by Stephen Levinson (Boardwalk Empire,
Entourage); executive produced by Stephen Levinson, Mark Wahlberg,
Dwayne Johnson, Dany Garcia, Peter Berg, Evan Reilly, Rob Weiss, Julian
Farino, Denis Biggs; and co-executive produced by Hiram Garcia.
