Netflix is set to produce a six-episode series on Colin Kaepernick called ‘Colin in Black & White.’
Kaepernick will narrate the scripted limited drama, which comes from director Ava DuVernay. Colin in Black & White is DuVernay’s latest project with Netflix following her acclaimed limited series, ‘When They See Us.’
Netflix says Kaepernick’s series will focus on his adolescent years while growing up with a white adopted family. It will also portray his high school life and events that led him to advocate for social justice. An actor will play a younger version of the now 32-year-old Kaepernick.
Kaepernick has remained unsigned in the NFL since the 2016-2017 season where he went 1-10 as a starter and threw for just 2,241 yards in his 11 starts.
