This is kinda old news, but it has progressed more to the point that casting has been picked and I guess HBO Max will be the platform it debuts on. My guess is that it'll be a movie, but part of me thinks it could be a series. The article I'm posting below, makes it sound like he will be making a show.

I am all for seeing more black characters in comics, shows, movies, etc. especially for the youth but why they gotta take a white character and paint him black and act like this is an accomplishment? I feel like writers these days are so out of original ideas and creative skills that they rely on this kind of bull instead of making new characters. I don't know. I guess I am indifferent about it at this point.
