AMC Networks has released the thrilling official trailer and key art for the anticipated upcoming four-part sports docuseries Rise of the 49ers. The limited series event, exploring the dramatic and iconic run of the San Francisco 49ers during the ‘80s and early ’90s, premieres with the first two episodes on Sunday, February 1 at 9/8c, followed by the remaining two episodes on Monday, February 2 at 9/8c on AMC and AMC+. Watch the trailer below:

The trailer kicks off with Brady, a San Mateo, CA native and lifelong 49ers fan, along with team legends Joe Montana, Jerry Rice and Steve Young as they reflect on the passion and pressure during the “Gold Rush” reign from 1981 to 1995 when San Francisco won five Super Bowls and revolutionized the sport, on and off the field. The series chronicles the rise of the team from underdogs into pro football’s most glamorous franchise and offers a compelling look at the personalities that helped shape the sport. 

Utilizing rare and never-before-seen footage from NFL Films, including video of team speeches and behind-the-scenes photos of San Francisco’s legendary head coach Bill Walsh, the series will feature incisive interviews with club legends (and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductees) Montana, Rice, Young, Ronnie Lott, and Eddie DeBartolo Jr., among others. Each episode will also feature on-camera contributions from Brady.
