Travis Kelce’s relationship with Taylor Swift propelled him from a well-known tight end to a full-blown superstar. And now that he’s on top, he does not plan to slow down.
The three-time Super Bowl champion and future Pro Football Hall of Famer has his sights set on Hollywood. Kelce has surrounded himself with some of the best representation in the entertainment industry. His team is massive.
Beyond his four football-specific agents and full-time publicist, Travis Kelce signed with CAA back in May. Nikki Goldfarb, who works with production companies like Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine, is his agent for non-scripted television. Rachel Rush, who also represents talent like Leslie Jones, James Corden and Trevor Noah, is his agent for motion picture and comedy. Lorrie Bartlett is also on the team and works with Regina King and Michael Keaton, among others.
All of this is to say that Kelce is taking his entertainment career very seriously. He and his camp are constantly searching for what’s next. They have kicked the tires on T.V., comedy opportunities and roles in film.
And, according to The Wrap, ‘White Lotus’ producer David Bernad was one of the many big names who flew to Kansas City during the NFL season to discuss a reality television show. Kelce wants to star in the show and serve as an executive producer.
In the meantime, Kelce is currently financing and executive producing two movies. His low-budget indie film ‘My Dead Friend Zoe’ will premiere at SXSW in March. A premiere date for ‘King Pleasure,’ a documentary about Jean-Michel Basquiat, has yet to be announced.
Kelce serves in a more behind-the-scenes role with each of his two ongoing projects. The hope is that he will be able to branch out and be on the screen more often in the future — in a larger, more profound capacity than his countless commercials and endorsement deals.
