Jordan and Outlier Society, which launched in 2016, will see cross-collaborations within Amazon’s vast businesses, from fashion, Audible, music and more, including Jordan’s appearance in Amazon’s Alexa big game ad. The company’s goal is to bring diverse stories to the forefront of Hollywood, starting with upcoming films such Creed III and the Denzel Washington-directed feature Journal for Jordan, with Jordan as star and producer.
