Kate Hudson Takes the Lead as a Basketball Executive in ‘Running Point’ Series Trailer

“We suck! I wanna know what you’re gonna do to stop the sucking.” Netflix has just released an official trailer for its upcoming sports series, Running Point. This fictional drama centers around a basketball team executive in Los Angeles and is produced by the talented Mindy Kaling for WB Television. Set to premiere at the end of February during the winter sports season, this series promises to be a captivating addition to Netflix’s lineup. “The balls are in her court now. Game on, boys.” 🏀

Kate Hudson stars as Isla Gordon, a character who has been overlooked her entire life but is now appointed as the President of the LA Waves basketball team, a family-run business. Isla is determined to prove her worth amidst skepticism from her peers. The 10-episode series also features a talented ensemble cast, including Brenda Song, Drew Tarver, Scott MacArthur, Fabrizio Guido, Toby Sandeman, Chet Hanks, Jay Ellis, Max Greenfield, and Justin Theroux. This series appears to be a delightful sports comedy that could rival HBO’s acclaimed series Winning Time. It’s clear that Hudson and Song are enjoying their roles, and the entire cast seems to be having a fantastic time.

When a scandal forces her brother to resign, Isla Gordon (Kate Hudson) steps up as president of the Los Angeles Waves, a prestigious professional basketball franchise and her family business. Ambitious yet often overlooked, Isla must demonstrate to her skeptical brothers, the board, and the broader sports community that she is the right choice for the role. From the acclaimed team of Mindy Kaling, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen, Running Point offers a fresh take on the underdog comedy genre. This series is created and showrun by David Stassen, known for his work on “The Mindy Project” and “History of the World: Part II.” The writing team includes Mindy Kaling, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen, with episodes directed by filmmaker James Ponsoldt (Smashed, The Spectacular Now, The End of the Tour, The Circle, Summering). Produced by Jordan Rambis and developed by Kaling International in collaboration with Warner Bros. Television, Running Point is set to stream on Netflix worldwide starting February 27th, 2025.
