The 2025 WNBA regular season is over, and Angel Reese is making news for her off-court activities. First, her major achievement right after the conclusion of the season was the launch of her signature shoe, Angel 1. Angel 1 became an instant hit among the fans, as they were sold out within minutes.
While the forward expressed gratitude after the signature sneaker sells out, Reese’s prophetic video from last year resurfaced on the internet. The fans’ overwhelming love was once again on display as Netflix recently got a demand to watch the LSU star in a special show.
Fans Want Angel Reese In Netflix Show
Demand for the show arose after Netflix announced Season 2 of “Starting 5.” The behind-the-scenes series features NBA stars, and the second season will air on October 16, just around the start of the NBA 2025-26 season.
While NBA stars are popular household names, the WNBA’s influence is also growing. Sophie Cunningham praised Reese and Caitlin Clark for their current rise in popularity. One fan came up with the idea of having a Netflix series for the WNBA stars, too.

The fans were quick to respond, with a special demand to add the Chi Town Barbie to the cast to make the show popular. Among the WNBA stars, the Chicago Sky forward has the most followers, and Netflix could use her popularity to gain some eyeballs.

Angel Reese Starring In Netflix Film
Although fans may have to wait for Reese’s arrival in a Netflix series, she starred in a Netflix film, House of Dynamite. The film recently premiered at the Venice Film Festival, earning an 11-minute standing ovation.
The WNBA icon has a cameo appearance in thriller films. The forward plays a scene in the last chapter, acting alongside Idris Elba, who assumes the role of the U.S. president. The star had already shown interest in being involved in the entertainment sector, and with her appearance in the Netflix film, she marked one of her destinations.
On the basketball side, the player will shortly compete in the Unrivalled tournament following her inaugural season success.
