Michael Jordan is not in Air, but Ben Affleck's movie has a very good reason why the legendary NBA star plays such a small role in the story.
Ben Affleck's movie tells Nike's story of creating the Air Jordan shoes, but Michael Jordan is not in Air for a good reason. The 2023 sports drama directed by Ben Affleck takes a different approach to tackle the life of arguably the greatest basketball player of all time. Air focuses on salesman Sonny Vaccaro as he plans to sign incoming star NBA rookie Michael Jordan to a contract with Nike to make him the face of their shoes.
Ben Affleck Felt An Actor Playing Michael Jordan Would Be Distracting Michael Jordan's absence from the Air movie has resulted in Ben Affleck having to explain the reasoning behind this decision. During a profile with THR, Affleck explained how he thought that having an actor play the 6-time NBA champion would be too distracting for audiences.
