Vegan Documentary The Game Changers Is Returning for a Sequel

The creators of the original vegan documentary The Game Changers have partnered with UNINTERRUPTED, a SpringHill Company and athlete empowerment brand founded by LeBron James and Maverick Carter, to bring you the long-awaited sequel, The Game Changers 2. The follow-up film is being co-directed by Stephanie Soechtig and Kristin Lazure, the talented filmmakers behind investigative documentaries like Fed Up, Knock Down the House, The Devil We Know, and Poisoned. In association with the duo’s production company Atlas Films, this documentary is set to head into production later this summer with the final debut date to be determined.

“With the SpringHill Company’s unparalleled track record fusing athlete-led storytelling with progressive subject matter, plus Stephanie and Kristin’s expert ability to weave compelling personal narratives with hard-hitting investigative journalism, we couldn’t be more thrilled about this team,” said James Wilks, producer of The Game Changers.

Like the original documentary, The Game Changers 2 will explore the critical connections between dietary factors and personal performance. The sequel will also showcase the broader relationships between diet, children’s health, food justice, the environment, and more. Like its predecessor, The Game Changers 2 will feature an A-list cast of athletes and public figures to bring these important storylines to life.
