LeBron suits up as producer for 'Survivor's Remorse'

BEVERLY HILLS – Basketball superstar LeBron James isn't getting too far ahead of himself with his latest off-court project, the hoops-related comedy Survivor's Remorse (Starz, Oct. 4, 9 p.m. ET/PT).

When friend and fellow executive producer Maverick Carter talked about possible stories for Season 6, half-jokingly assuming a long run for the half-hour series, James acknowledged TV success is no easy layup. At a Tuesday premiere screening at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, he reminded a supportive audience of an earlier statement he made about multiple NBA championships for his former team, the Miami Heat.
