Ryan Coogler signed onto TV series ‘Minors’

Deadline has reported today that Creed writer-director Ryan Coogler is teaming up with Short Term 12 helmer Destin Daniel Cretton and poet/playwright Chinaka Hodge to develop Minors, a new television drama series produced by Charles D. King’s Macro.

"Minors draws on the personal experiences of the creative trio, based on Cretton's work in residential foster care; Coogler's Oakland, CA, upbringing and time working in a juvenile detention facility; and Hodge's efforts as a teacher working with underserved youth. The drama hopes to take a unique approach in tackling institutionalization, focusing on the children who grow up in the system — with the structure of the show documenting how the facilities influence and shape the kids over the span of a year." - Hollywood Reporter

Straight of the success of Creed and Fruitvale Station, Ryan Coogler is a welcomed edition to this already exciting teamup. No word yet on production scheduling, as Coogler is also set to helm Marvel's Black Panther, with a release date of 2018.
