Overview

  • The two-part Hulu docuseries, directed by Ry Russo-Young, premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival and streams June 10, tracing Cooper’s personal and professional journey.
  • Cooper alleges that coach Nancy Feldman made inappropriate comments about her body, demanded private meetings and threatened her scholarship if she resisted.
  • Boston University officials declined to investigate or discipline Feldman after receiving detailed complaints from Cooper and her mother, opting only to preserve Cooper’s scholarship.
  • Feldman retired in 2022 after 27 years leading Boston University’s women’s soccer program and was publicly honored despite the allegations.
  • Her ordeal inspired the 2018 launch of Call Her Daddy, which led to a $60 million Spotify contract and a later $125 million deal with SiriusXM.
