The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that the former NFL quarterback and activist is teaming with Ava DuVernay for Colin in Black & White, a scripted limited drama that has been picked up by the streaming giant.

Linda Fairstein is suing Ava Duvernay and Netflix for what she says is a “false and defamatory” portrayal of her in the Netflix miniseries When They See Us that dramatized the events surrounding the notorious Central Park Five case.
