EXCLUSIVE<\/strong>: Jupiter Entertainment, the company behind Oxygen\u2019s long-running true-crime series Snapped<\/em>, is moving into the soccer world.<\/p>\n

The company, run by President Patrick Reardon, has struck a first-look deal with Kickback Soccer Media, to develop and produce original soccer-focused series and sports-driven programming for U.S. audiences ahead of the 2026 and 2027 FIFA World Cups.<\/p>\n

More from Deadline<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jupiter will work with Kickback, whose founders include former CBS Sports host Susannah Fuller, CBS Sports Golazo Network reporter Claudia Pagan and MLS player Mark-Anthony Kaye, on a soccer slate.<\/p>\n

It follows Kickback\u2019s launch last year with a trio of podcasts including Soccerwise, Kickback Committee <\/em>and First Touch<\/em>. The company\u2019s other founders include CEO John Parker, David Gass, Tom Bogert, and Jordan Angeli.<\/p>\n

It is Jupiter\u2019s latest move into soccer content; it recently produced documentary\u00a0Lions of Mesopotamia,<\/em> which chronicled the Iraqi national soccer team\u2019s 2007 Asian Cup victory amid civil war.<\/p>\n

\u201cSoccer is no longer an emerging sport in the U.S. It\u2019s fully here and ranks as the third most popular sport nationwide and the second most popular among fans under 40. We see a significant opportunity to tell stories that resonate with this rapidly growing audience \u2014 one that is seeking context and meaning beyond the matches,\u201d said Reardon. \u201cOur partnership with Kickback brings unmatched credibility, insight and access, enabling us to deliver authentic content as the country prepares to host the world\u2019s largest-ever sporting event.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cKickback Soccer Media was founded by an unprecedented collective of the homegrown voices and creatives who\u2019ve spent decades striving for a bigger, more inclusive soccer fan community,\u201d added Kickback CEO\u00a0John Parker. \u201cThis partnership with Jupiter establishes an even more ambitious collaboration for Kickback, that pairs our unparalleled authenticity and access with Jupiter\u2019s premium storytelling capabilities, positioning this partnership to galvanize American soccer\u2019s fandom through these two massive years.\u201d<\/p>\n
