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.
