Samuel L. Jackson will lend a lift to Sunday night’s Chiefs-Falcons match-up on NBC.

The actor, known for roles in movies similar to “Pulp Fiction,” “Patriot Games” and “Glass,” will star in what NBC Sports bills as a “cinematic opening sequence” for tonight’s “” broadcast, which could be seen on each NBC and the Peacock streaming service.

Jackson is amongst the celebrities of “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist,” a brand new original limited series streaming on Peacock. This system is executive produced by Will Packer and Kevin Hart, and stars Jackson, Hart, Taraji P. Henson, Don Cheadle and Terrence Howard.

The series is predicated on a true-crime podcast distributed by iHeart, and follows the story of how an armed robbery on the night of Muhammad Ali’s historic 1970 comeback fight helped transform the economy and culture of Atlanta, Georgia. Hart plays a hustler often known as “Chicken Man” hosts an afterparty to have fun the fight with a top-shelf guest list of the country’s wealthiest. However the night ends with a brazen heist. Suspected of masterminding the crime, Chicken Man works to clearing his name, though he must persuade his old adversary, J.D. Hudson (played by Cheadle), considered one of the primary Black detectives in the town’s desegregated police force, who’s assigned to seek out the wrongdoer.

The primary three episodes of “Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” premiered on September 5, 2024, and a brand new episode premieres weekly on Thursdays on Peacock.

Jackson sold popcorn, peanuts and drinks on the Falcons’ first home stadium — Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium — within the Sixties.  Within the opening, he discusses his fandom, and offers some thoughts on the sport ahead.
