Amazon Prime will produce a new TV series documenting the Ingebrigtsen brothers as they prepare for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, according to the Norwegian newspaper VG. This is the second TV show about the world-renowned runners; Team Ingebrigtsen aired for five seasons on a Norwegian station from 2016 to 2021, documenting the trio’s journey to the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.
Max Bellman, the PR manager for Amazon Prime in the Nordics, confirmed the show via e-mail to VG, but didn’t provide any other details. The Ingebrigstens’ father and former coach, Gjert, was part of the original show, but stepped down from coaching due to “medical reasons,” according to The Guardian. In October, the brothers accused their father of physically violent behavior, and Jakob has publicly said they’re not on good terms.
