Hidden Empire Sports Collective

Hidden Empire Sports Collective (HESC) is a joint venture between Hidden Empire Film Group (HEFG) and The Union — the only athlete-owned OTT network — launched in early 2025. HESC claims to be the first entertainment division from a film studio to prioritize intellectual property and content creation for professional athletes, with exclusive relationships with both the NFL and NBA. The company develops feature films, docuseries, and vertical microdramas centered on athlete-driven stories, with active development deals including Floyd Mayweather, Scottie Pippen, and James Harden. It also hosts an annual NFL Career Tour at its Santa Monica studio, educating current players and legends on the entertainment industry.
