On the heels of Taylor Swift\u2018s New Heights podcast interview that broke the internet (with 20 million views and counting) and displayed just how well the superstar singer-songwriter knows the team, the Chiefs pulled back the curtain on the 2024 season and their bid for a third straight Super Bowl championship by way of ESPN\u2019s The Kingdom.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">The six-episode docuseries, produced by Words + Pictures in association with Skydance Sports, NFL Films, 2PM Productions and the team\u2019s Foolish Club Studios, may not have ended the way the team would have wanted with another Vince Lombardi Trophy, but the show itself is an example of what\u2019s to come out of Kansas City.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt tells\u00a0The Hollywood Reporter\u00a0that with the launch of Foolish Club Studios, the team is actively pursuing additional scripted and unscripted projects as they grow their entertainment aspirations and seek to expand the fanbase beyond Arrowhead Stadium.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">Below, Hunt opens up on why the team said yes to\u00a0The Kingdom, how the recent moves align with his father Lamar Hunt\u2019s legacy and the magic of having Swift in the building on game day.<\/p>\n<div class=\"injected-related-story \/\/ u-margin-tb-250 u-margin-t-4@desktop-xl u-margin-b-3@desktop-xl\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>What feedback have you fielded about\u00a0<em>The Kingdom<\/em>\u00a0since it debuted?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">The feedback has been tremendous. I\u2019ve had several people reach out and say that they had no idea about the history of the team and all the contributions that my father made to the game of pro football. That\u2019s been fun to hear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>Why say yes to a project like this?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We had several groups reach out to us wanting to chronicle the team\u2019s historic pursuit of a third straight Lombardi trophy. At first we were a little bit hesitant and worried about the distractions that might come with it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">But we really got comfortable with the Words + Pictures team that they could do an outstanding job while at the same time not encroaching on the football team during the process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We\u2019re big fans of the work they had done before, particularly with\u00a0<em>The Last Dance<\/em>, which chronicled the Chicago Bulls sixth NBA championship.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">My family\u2019s invested in the Bulls, and that was a very special time for our family. One of the things that most excited us about working with them is that not only does\u00a0<em>The Kingdom<\/em>\u00a0tell the story of last year, but it really tells the story of the Kansas City Chiefs across six decades.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>What other reservations did you have?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">Beyond the distraction, the only concern that you have when you allow a film crew to follow the team is that you may end up giving away some of your game plans. That was something we discussed with Words and Pictures, and as it turned out, it wasn\u2019t an issue at all.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>The first episode is titled \u201cFamily Business,\u201d and obviously the name caught my eye for a number of reasons. This truly is a family business for you, and that extends to the launch of Foolish Club Studios, named as a tribute to your father. Can you talk about that and how it aligns with your father\u2019s mission?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We\u2019re very excited to now have Foolish Club Studios as part of the Chiefs business overall in that it gives us another way to connect with fans. My dad was really about the entertainment aspect of professional sports and specifically professional football.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">He was always looking for ways to make the fan experience better. It\u2019s something we\u2019ve done over the past decade with our in-house production team, 65 Toss Power Trap Productions, to help give our fanbase a behind-the-scenes look at what goes into making the Kansas City Chiefs what they are on the field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">Now we have an opportunity with Foolish Club Studios to really expand on that to do both scripted and unscripted type ventures.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We couldn\u2019t be happier that\u00a0<em>The Kingdom<\/em>\u00a0is our first venture out there because it really does a tremendous job of letting our fans in to see what goes on, and it allows them to learn a lot about so many of the important players and coaches while also learning about the history of the organization and how that ties to the current day Chiefs and the success that we\u2019re having on the field.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/ \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/BrettMarkandVeach.jpeg?w=2730\" alt=\"\" width=\"2730\" height=\"1536\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-padding-tb-025\"><span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\">Chiefs president Mark Donovan, CEO Clark Hunt and general manager Brett Veach in\u00a0<em>The Kingdom<\/em>\u00a0from ESPN, Disney+ and Skydance Sports presented by State Farm.<\/span>\u00a0<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Courtesy of ESPN<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>Your mention of scripted projects is really interesting. An obvious project when it comes to professional sports teams is a nonfiction or documentary project or series. What kinds of stories do you want to tell on the scripted front?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">Yeah, so a good example of what we might do from a scripted standpoint is a production that actually preceded Foolish Cup Studios \u2014\u00a0the Hallmark movie [<em>Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story<\/em>].<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">That project really opened our eyes in terms of the brand power that the Chiefs have and the opportunities for the types of stories we can tell.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">The Chiefs history and the important role that my dad and the American Football League, the Dallas Texans and the early Chiefs teams played in making the NFL what it is today also provide opportunities from a scripted basis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We may also end up doing projects that are completely away from the Chiefs. We\u2019ve had partners reach out to us to ask if we\u2019d like to be involved in other things, mostly in the sports space, but that\u2019s an avenue we may end up pursuing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">I\u2019m not going to go into specifics on what we might do there because we\u2019re talking to several people about projects, but it may not be limited to the Kansas City Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We have the ability to do things away from the Chiefs and away from football.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/ \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Mahomes.png?w=2174\" alt=\"\" width=\"2174\" height=\"1222\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-padding-tb-025\"><span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\">Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes in\u00a0<em>The Kingdom.<\/em><\/span>\u00a0<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Courtesy of ESPN<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>Speaking of the team, the international piece has been important to you in terms of broadening the fanbase. What are the challenges of broadening the fanbase beyond the United States?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">That\u2019s an avenue that I also have to give my dad credit for because if you go back to the \u201880s and \u201990s, he was one of the biggest proponents of the NFL expanding internationally. In fact, he served on the NFL International Committee, which helped launch NFL Europe, the NFL\u2019s first effort to really take the game internationally.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">He volunteered the Chiefs to play in preseason games internationally whenever he could because he understood it was a great way for the team to build a fanbase that went beyond North America. Of course, the NFL\u2019s efforts in that regard have grown significantly over the past couple of decades with the league now playing several regular season games a year internationally. That\u2019s something the Chiefs have embraced, and we will open the season this year in S\u00e3o Paolo, Brazil against the Chargers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">It\u2019s a new market for us. We\u2019ll have a chance to become the only NFL team to win five regular season games in different countries if we win that game. That\u2019ll be the goal as we open the season. But we really look at it just as a way to grow our fanbase. We have a very large fanbase now in the United States, and we\u2019re focused on growing that fanbase internationally, both in terms of hosting games, which is really a great way to build a fanbase, but also doing grassroots things to help build a fanbase as well.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/ \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Kelce_Reid.png?w=2174\" alt=\"\" width=\"2174\" height=\"1222\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-padding-tb-025\"><span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\"><a id=\"auto-tag_travis-kelce_1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/t\/travis-kelce\/\" data-tag=\"travis-kelce\">Travis Kelce<\/a>\u00a0and head coach Andy Reid in\u00a0<em>The Kingdom.<\/em><\/span>\u00a0<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Courtesy of ESPN<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>You\u2019re in the fortunate position now of having really genuine superstars on the team.

How do you lean on those guys and the other stars at this moment to broaden the base, both in terms of the Chiefs but also the team\u2019s entertainment aspirations?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">It\u2019s something that my dad taught me about the sports business is that fans love engaging with the team team, but they love engaging with the stars on a team even more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">We\u2019re very fortunate to have players like Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Chris Jones. Those players are not only outstanding on the field but outstanding in the community and they love connecting with our fanbase. One of the things about modern day professional sports is you want to give the players every opportunity that you can to connect with our fans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">With a production like\u00a0<em>The Kingdom<\/em>, we\u2019re able to take the fans behind-the-scenes into the players\u2019 family lives. You\u2019ve already seen in the early episodes a lot of what Patrick Mahomes and his family go through both during the season and out of season to get ready for a championship pursuit.

I apologize for adding to the churn, but we can\u2019t ignore the effect their relationship is having on the team and pop culture. You and I are talking on the heels of the\u00a0<em>New Heights<\/em>\u00a0podcast interview that drew millions of listeners. What have these last couple of years been like as an owner? How do you embrace the unpredictability of how their relationship impacts your world?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">The first thing to mention here is how happy we are for both Travis and Taylor in their relationship. That\u2019s the most important thing. It certainly has opened up an opportunity for us to connect with a new demographic from a fan standpoint.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">I\u2019m pretty sure that the Chiefs ranked No. 1 among NFL teams in the female demographic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">From the time that Taylor started dating Travis, we\u2019ve seen a big shift from approximately 50 percent male and female to now our fanbase in North America is 57 percent female, which is very unique among NFL teams. She clearly has had a big impact. I enjoyed seeing the\u00a0<em>New Heights<\/em>\u00a0podcast and hearing her talk about her passion for the team. She\u2019s clearly not a casual fan.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">She\u2019s gone all in, which is really great. Again, we couldn\u2019t be more happy for their relationship and we\u2019re happy to have Taylor as part of the Chiefs\u2019 kingdom.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \"><strong>As someone who has grown up going to Chiefs games, how is the energy different when she\u2019s inside Arrowhead Stadium?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ a-font-body-m \">Well, there\u2019s usually a 100 percent focus on what is happening on the field. When Taylor attends a game, there\u2019s always a little bit of a spectacle going on in a suite somewhere in the building, which the networks have done a great job of capturing. But I know our fans really enjoy it and love having her there knowing that she\u2019s such a great Chiefs fan. It does create a different energy when she\u2019s in attendance.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/ \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/GettyImages-1931205805-EMBED-2025.jpg?w=1000\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-padding-tb-025\"><span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\">Taylor Swift celebrates with fans during the Chief-Dolphins AFC wild card playoff game in January 2024.<\/span>\u00a0<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Jamie Squire\/Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content-image \/\/ \">\n<figure class=\"o-figure size-large alignnone lrv-u-max-width-100p\">\n<div class=\"c-lazy-image \">\n<div class=\"lrv-a-crop-16x9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"c-lazy-image__img lrv-u-background-color-grey-lightest lrv-u-width-100p lrv-u-display-block lrv-u-height-auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/KelceTunnel.jpeg?w=2730\" alt=\"\" width=\"2730\" height=\"1536\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"c-figcaption lrv-u-padding-tb-025\"><span class=\"a-font-secondary-s lrv-u-margin-r-025\">Kelce in\u00a0<em>The Kingdom.<\/em><\/span>\u00a0<cite class=\"a-font-accent-uppercase-xs lrv-u-color-grey-dark\">Courtesy of ESPN<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"piano-paywall\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"a-article-after-content lrv-u-margin-t-1\">\n<div class=\"article-tags \/\/ lrv-u-text-transform-uppercase\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hunt opens up on how the series aligns with the Chiefs\u2019 entertainment prospects: \u201cWe have an opportunity with Foolish Club Studios to really expand on that to&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":82176,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-82169","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-showbiz"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.6 -
