Prime Video is set to roll out a new docuseries titled *Hometown Giants* this fall, offering viewers an inside look at the Vancouver Giants, a junior hockey franchise based in Vancouver, Canada. The series will chronicle the daily realities of the team’s young athletes as they chase a coveted spot in the National Hockey League.
The project is the brainchild of two Vancouver natives who have each built formidable reputations beyond the rink: Grammy‑winning vocalist Michael Bublé and television personality Drew Scott, co‑host of the *Property Brothers* franchise. Both have held minority stakes in the Giants for several years and will now be featured on camera, sharing their vision for the club’s future.
Bublé, whose discography includes multiple platinum albums and a stint as a coach on NBC’s *The Voice*, brings a music‑industry sensibility to the partnership, while Scott’s experience as an executive producer on several home‑renovation series adds a production‑savvy edge. Their combined star power is expected to draw a broad audience to the otherwise niche world of junior hockey.
Founded in 1972, the Vancouver Giants play out of the iconic Pacific Coliseum and have long served as a developmental pipeline for Canadian talent. The upcoming docuseries will follow a handful of prospects through training camps, travel schedules, and community outreach, illustrating the rigorous path required to reach the NHL.
A Parallel Success Story
The venture is not without precedent. Actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, who acquired the Welsh soccer club Wrexham United in 2020, have documented their ownership journey in the acclaimed documentary *Welcome to Wrexham*. Their high‑profile approach mirrors the Bublé‑Scott model, blending entertainment personalities with sports entrepreneurship.
Produced in collaboration with Amazon MGM Studios and distributed under the Prime Video banner, *Hometown Giants* will be released in a limited‑run format, with each episode spotlighting a different facet of the team’s operation. The series aims to capture both the competitive drive of the players and the personal stories that shape their ambitions.
For fans of Canadian sport and followers of celebrity‑driven ventures, the series represents a convergence of entertainment and athletics that could redefine how audiences engage with minor‑league hockey.
