Team WNBA forward Angel Reese (5) hands off her shoes to a young fan after the WNBA All-Star Game at Footprint Center in Phoenix on July 20, 2024.
Angel Reese has been making her presence felt on the court as well as outside of it, and it’s still just her rookie season in the WNBA. She seems to have no trouble signing endorsement deals here and there, and many fans wonder if she’s bound for cinema stardom anytime soon.
One fan actually raised that topic with a post on X.
“When Angel Reese gets that first movie cameo the haters will self-destruct,” a fan named LakersGuru posted.
The Chicago Sky rookie noticed the post and responded accordingly. “Oh coming soon,” she said.

In October 2023, Reese signed a multi-year endorsement deal with Reebok, preferring a safe long-term option over other brands. She launched her “Reebok by Angel“ apparel line earlier this month, announcing it last March.

“I don’t like doing what everybody [else does]. I like to do the complete opposite. I’m bringing Reebok back,” Reese stated after signing her deal.
Angel Reese prioritized her long-term security as the brand’s focal-point athlete when signing the deal. It also helps that she has built a relationship with NBA Hall of Famer Shaquille O’Neal, who also happens to be Reebok’s president of basketball.

Angel Reese and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups—a perfect match
Angel Reese had long called her fans the “Reese’s Pieces,” a nod to a popular confectionery produced by a company she shares her name with. And in an interesting turn of events, the promising rookie signed a deal with the company in what looks to be a perfect union.
On Wednesday afternoon, Reese announced her new endorsement deal with Reese’s on X.
“To the Reese’s Pieces, y’all made this happen!” She posted.

The announcement of the deal follows an exchange between the Reeses, after the candy company’s official X account posted an image of a Reese’s piece donning a headband just like Reese the player does in her games.
The “Angel Reese x Reese’s” collaboration comes with shirts, sweaters, hats, and a personalized jersey with the rookie’s No. 5 on the front and back sides.
Apart from the records she’s already broken in the WNBA, including the longest double-double streak in a single season, the Rookie of the Year candidate has upgraded her already impressive résumé yet again—this time on the outside of the court. If her critics say she still hasn’t done enough for her star to shine, her ongoing endorsement deals with Reebok and Reese’s undoubtedly say the opposite.
