GIANNIS Antetokounmpo is taking his media venture into a whole new arena with his first Hollywood film.

The Milwaukee Bucks star recently launched his new media and production company Improbable Media, which he co-founded with ESPN analyst Jay Williams.

Antetokounmpo kicked off with a subject he knows best, himself. The feature-length documentary, Giannis: The Marvelous Journey, was released on Amazon Prime last month.

And a new slate of projects for the new company includes a scripted heist film.

It is believed that the film, which could well star a number of Hollywood’s biggest names, will be set in Greece.

Among the other upcoming projects for Improbable Media will be a cooking show.

The brilliant Antetokounmpo has been nicknamed “The Greek Freak”, referencing that he is 6-foot-11 tall.

The 29-year-old already has a number of business interests with his brothers, Thanasis, Kostas, and Alex.

His face is a hugely popular one for advertisers too. He is the face of Google’s bid to challenge Apple in the smartphone industry, promoting the tech giant’s new Pixel phones.

And he has also featured in commercials for other major brands such as T-Mobile, JBL, and Breitling.

Antetokounmpo has been with the Bucks since 2013, with the power forward establishing himself as one of the finest players in the sport.

He helped the Bucks to championship glory in 2021, as they beat the Phoenix Suns 4-2 in the NBA Finals.

Antetokounmpo missed Wednesday’s 122-119 loss to the Boston Cetlcs.

He is set to rejoin the team back in Milwaukee on Thursday, when they host the Brooklyn Nets.
