Exclusive: Sylvester Stallone’s Balboa Productions has formed a partnership with rising sports streaming outlet Dazn, starting with a series of feature documentaries under the banner One Night.
The pairing suits Dazn’s initial positioning in the U.S. as a home for boxing, though it’s a broad enough heading to encompass other sports narratives. The $20-a-month streaming service launched in the U.S. in fall 2018 but also operates in eight other countries, carrying games in many territories from leagues like the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball. Stateside, Dazn made its biggest initial splash by grabbing exclusive rights to five years of Canelo Alvarez fights. It also streamed the biggest boxing upset in decades on June 1, when Andy Ruiz beat Anthony Joshua at Madison Square Garden.
Leveraging Stallone’s creation of the Rocky franchise, One Night films will look back at memorable nights in recent boxing history such as the Ruiz-Joshua bout.

Even Taika Waititi is surprised by his own Hollywood success. An admitted late bloomer, the native New Zealander spent a chunk of his 20s in Berlin, embracing the life of a struggling artist as both a performer and painter. "I thought I was some cool bohemian artist," he says of this late-1990s period.
By the time he decided to try his hand at filmmaking, he was 30, ancient by contemporary Hollywood standards. It didn't matter: One of the filmmaker's first projects, a 12-minute, black-and-white charmer called Two Cars, One Night, picked up awards at fests around the ...
