Kobe Bryant is spending his time going all-in on a new venture, and he is picking the brains of a team of stars in the process.
No, I’m not talking about anything basketball-related. I’m talking about Bryant’s publishing and production company, Kobe Inc., and the advice he solicits from Hollywood heavyweights Steven Spielberg, J.J. Abrams, and Jerry Bruckheimer.
“I mean, those are like unfair advantages,” Bryant told the Associated Press via ESPN. “I can pick up the phone and speak to them and ask them questions: ‘What do you think about the story? What is this missing?’ And they’ll nitpick every single detail and I love it.”
Bryant employs a staff of ten, and he gets together with them every day to brainstorm ideas. Their current project is a film based on Bryant’s “Dear Basketball” letter.
No wonder Bryant isn’t interested in a TV gig. He’ll probably find success with this, too, just you watch.
