The highly anticipated three-part docuseries about the UConn women’s basketball program finally has a release date, Apple TV announced Thursday.

 “The Dynasty: UConn Huskies” takes a look at 40 years of head coach Geno Auriemma’s iconic team, culminating with the 2025 NCAA Championship won by the Huskies. It will premiere Aug. 21 via the streaming service.

The story starts with the 1985 season, when a floundering UConn program takes the court with a first year, 31-year-old coach, and walks the viewers through the journey of three dozen appearances in the Women’s NCAA Tournament and a record dozen national championships. Archival footage will give fans who are not old enough to remember the early days of the program a good look.

Along the way, viewers will get reacquainted with some of the greats of program history – Rebecca Lobo, Swin Cash, Sue Bird and Maya Moore among them – and hear extensively from the players on the 2025 team. The docuseries includes interviews with Paige Bueckers and Azzi Fudd, the past two WNBA No. 1 draft picks who now are Dallas Wings teammates; Sarah Strong, who as a sophomore in the 2025-26 season was the National Player of the Year; and KK Arnold and Jana El Alfy.

A news release from Apple TV promises “a rare, inside look at the players carrying the program forward while reflecting on the legacy that built it.”

“The Dynasty: UConn Huskies” traces that journey in full – blending never-before-seen archival footage, incisive interviews and intimate access to players, coaches, alumni and more – revealing how a program built over decades continues to define the standard today,” per the news release.

When the creation of the docuseries was announced last June, Auriemma had this to say:

“This series offers fans an exclusive view into 40 seasons of UConn women’s basketball, and I’m really excited for audiences to be able to see all the hard work that has built this program.”

“The Dynasty: UConn Huskies” is just the latest in Apple’s sports-focused offerings.

The streamer has developed documentaries that include “Fight for Glory: 2024 World Series,” a look the postseason history between the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers; “Onside: Major League Soccer,” an in-depth look at the league’s season in 2024; “Messi’s World Cup: The Rise of a Legend,” which Apple TV called “the first official and definitive account of Messi’s sensational career with the Argentina national team and his five FIFA World Cup appearances, including his 2022 win.”
