Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry has added another milestone to his already illustrious career this time beyond the basketball court. The four-time NBA champion has officially stepped into the world of film and animation. He is taking on the roles of both producer and voice actor in his latest venture.
Curry announced his participation in an upcoming animated feature titled GOAT, which is scheduled for global release on February 13, 2026. The project marks his debut in the entertainment industry, which is currently valued at over $436 billion worldwide.
The film follows Lenny Williamson, a determined giraffe navigating the competitive world of “roarball,” a fictional sport that blends teamwork, passion, and perseverance. Curry will lend his voice to the lead character and serve as a producer.
Not your average GOAT.

The project is being developed in collaboration with creative teams behind major animated hits. These include K-Pop Demon Hunters and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. “This project is all about perseverance and chasing your dreams,” Curry shared, highlighting the same principles that have defined his basketball journey and personal philosophy.
Curry’s foray into animation represents more than just a creative experiment — it’s a strategic expansion of his influence into a new industry. By entering the multi-billion-dollar entertainment sector, the NBA icon aims to establish a legacy that transcends sports.

Unlike many celebrity endorsements, Curry’s involvement is hands-on. His dual role as both producer and actor demonstrates a deep commitment to storytelling and creative authenticity.
This venture also serves as a long-term investment in his post-basketball career. It blends entrepreneurship with artistry. Curry’s growing portfolio — which already includes his media company Unanimous Media reflects his ambition to shape cultural narratives through film, television, and digital media.
