Portrait of an Artist: Stephen Curry Trailer and Poster Debut

The Walt Disney Studios has released the new trailer and poster for Portrait of an Artist: Stephen Curry, the ESPN Films documentary directed by Religion of Sports co-founder Gotham Chopra.

Releasing exclusively in IMAX theaters on October 9, 2026, the film is produced and presented by IMAX, Religion of Sports and Unanimous Media, in association with NBA Entertainment, and will be distributed by Disney.

On the verge of his record-extending 4,000th career three-pointer, four-time NBA champion and two-time MVP Stephen Curry reflects on the upbringing, mindset, and work ethic that have made him one of the most legendary artists of our time.

The film captures Curry leading up to and throughout one remarkable game, weaving together his generational artistry with perspectives from other innovative artists – including Viola Davis, Rick Rubin, Patti Smith and Jon Batiste – showcasing how his singular vision has permanently transformed the game of basketball.

This state-of-the-art production utilized 21 IMAX-certified cameras to capture the urgency and emotion around this historic single day and single game.

When Curry hit his 4,000th career three-pointer, it wasn’t just another record – it was something the league had literally never seen before. Curry entered the home game at Chase Center against the Sacramento Kings needing just two threes to reach the unprecedented milestone of 4,000 career three-pointers.

Curry became the first player in NBA history to reach this historic milestone. The Warriors went on to win the game 130-104.

Portrait of an Artist: Stephen Curry is directed by Gotham Chopra; produced by John Turner, Meghan Cirillo, Nick Frew, Erick Peyton, and Sharla Sumpter Bridgett; and will be released exclusively in IMAX theaters on October 9, 2026.
