Travis Kelce in talks with 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' producers for TV series: report

Travis Kelce is having a pretty, pretty good month!

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end got engaged to Taylor Swift, and is now reportedly in talks with "Curb Your Enthusiasm" executive producer Jeff Schaffer about starring in a new television series that would see the NFL star play himself.

An industry source told Page Six, "I know that Travis has been exploring a number of things. He is talking to Jeff about a show similar to 'Curb' that would follow him around. He would be playing himself he wants to act."

Travis has already taken on a handful of screen projects.

In October 2024 he hosted "Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?" for Amazon Prime, and he appeared in Adam Sandler's "Happy Gilmore 2," released by Netflix in July this year. Last year he appeared in FX's "Grotesquirie," from "American Horror Story" producer Ryan Murphy.

His growing media presence has been supported by Taylor, who promoted "Happy Gilmore 2" to her 281 million Instagram followers on its release.

"'Happy Gilmore 2' had me cackling and cheering the whole movie! An absolute must watch, 13/10, go watch it on @netflix as soon as humanly possible," she wrote.

Travis has also continued to expand his profile through his podcast "New Heights," co-hosted with his brother Jason Kelce, a former Philadelphia Eagles player.

The pair signed a $100 million deal with Amazon's Wondery in August 2024.

A live-streamed episode in which Taylor appeared broke the Guinness World Record for the most concurrent livestream viewers for a podcast on YouTube - drawing 1.3 million viewers in real time and more than 10 million views within 24 hours.
