I Got Next


The Reboot - Clippers Basketball Superstar Blake Griffith, is ready for his closeup of another kind.  Kenya Barris, the creator of ABC’s acclaimed comedy Black-ish, is teaming with Blake Griffin of the NBA’s Los Angeles Clippers and Ryan Kalil of the NFL’s Carolina Panthers to develop a remake of the 1992 sports comedy for 20th Century Fox.


Barris will write the script for the project, which falls under his overall film deal with Fox that he signed in September. Barris also will act as a producer.


Griffin and Kalil are producing via their Mortal Media banner, along with their partner Noah Weinstein. […]


Griffin and Kalil’s Mortal Media is a relatively new venture but is busy building an active slate with high-profile titles. Among other projects the company is developing is a remake of The Rocketeer centered around a lead that will be black and female. The company also has an NBC comedy in development.
