UNTOLD pulls back the curtain on epic, enthralling sports stories, from Jake Paul’s journey as a YouTube star turned professional boxer to Manti Te’o’s remarkable college football career that was overshadowed by the tale of a girlfriend who didn’t exist.

The next batch of stories in the acclaimed series includes UNTOLD: The Fall of Favre. The tell-all documentary unpacks the life of Brett Favre, best known as the Green Bay Packers superstar quarterback who nabbed three NFL MVPs and led his team to a Super Bowl championship. But Favre also had a pattern of inappropriate behavior off the field that at last came to light.

Accusations against Favre came from former New York Jets employee Jenn Sterger, who denied the player’s request for her phone number but alleges she still received explicit text messages from him that derailed her blossoming career. Additionally, Favre was caught up in a massive welfare fraud scheme, accused of knowingly receiving funds that were intended for families in need.

UNTOLD: The Fall of Favre explores the claims against Favre and the public’s willingness to disregard misconduct if it threatens to blemish the record of a high-status hero. The teaser above concludes with Sterger’s ominous statement: “When someone shows you who they are, believe them.”

The film was directed by Rebecca Gitlitz, who says that she’s always been drawn to stories filled with nuance and complexity — specifically when they unpack what’s on the other side of fame. 

“[The Fall of Favre] felt like the worlds were aligning,” Gitlitz says. “This story about one of the greatest quarterbacks in history goes beyond touchdowns and epic wins and lifts the lid on how, when fame rises, sometimes accountability falls. It was made with the intention of laying out patterns of behaviors, told by the people who lived with the consequences of Favre’s actions, to ask audiences to consider if success should be a shield for harmful behavior.”

“I’ve always been drawn to stories filled with nuance and complexity, and when it comes to sports’ biggest stars, what’s on the other side of fame?” Gitlitz continues. “The UNTOLD series has shown time and time again that they are willing to tell unfiltered stories no matter the depth.”
