Netflix Orders She's Gotta Have It Series Based on the Spike Lee Joint
The streaming service has ordered a series adaptation of Spike Lee's debut film She's Gotta Have It, Deadline reports.
The movie She's Gotta Have It is about a Brooklynite artist in her late 20s named Nola Darling who struggles to balance her burgeoning career with her complicated personal life, in which she's juggling three lovers -- a model, a banker and a sneakerhead, the latter of whom was played by Lee himself.
The film was groundbreaking in the way American independent films are made, as well as the depiction of African-American characters in movies.
