Netflix Announces February Premiere of Mindy Kaling's Comedy 'Running Point'

The 10-episode series stars Kate Hudson as the president of a fictional NBA team navigating challenges in a male-dominated industry.

Running Point, a new Netflix comedy created by Mindy Kaling, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen, will debut on February 27, 2025.
Kate Hudson stars as Isla Gordon, who takes over as president of the Los Angeles Waves basketball team following a family scandal.
The show features a star-studded cast, including Brenda Song, Max Greenfield, Drew Tarver, and Justin Theroux, with Hudson also serving as an executive producer.
The series draws inspiration from the real-life story of Jeanie Buss, co-owner of the Los Angeles Lakers, who is also an executive producer on the show.
Running Point will explore themes of ambition, family dynamics, and the challenges of breaking into male-dominated spaces, set against the backdrop of the professional basketball world.
