Colin Kaepernick and Ava DuVernay are teaming up for a new project on Netflix.
The director and athlete/activist announced they are working on a new scripted limited series, «Colin in Black & White,» which will focus on Kaepernick’s «formative high school years, lending meaningful insight into the acts and experiences that led him to become the activist he is today.»
DuVernay and Kaepernick will produce and the former quarterback will narrate the six episodes while an actor will play the younger version of him.
«With his act of protest, Colin Kaepernick ignited a national conversation about race and justice with far-reaching consequences for football, culture and for him, personally,” DuVernay said in a press release on Monday.
