Renowned
Filmmaker
Spike
Lee's
much-cherished
movie
She's
Gotta
Have
It
(1986)
is
all
gearing
up
to
head
to
small
screen
as
a
new
TV
series.
According
to
the
reports,
Netflix
is
believed
to
have
acquired
the
rights
and
is
proceeding
with
the
project.
It
will
bring
all
the
exploits
in
one
frame,
showcasing
artist
Nola
Darling
and
her
complications
with
multiple
relationships.
At
the
start,
the
initial
season
will
comprise
of
10
episodes,
all
which
will
be
headed
and
directed
by
Spike
Lee.
Along
with
this,
Lee
will
also
perform
as
the
executive
producer
with
his
wife,
Tonya
Lee,
for
the
series.
This
project
was
however
in
the
development
stage
during
2014
at
the
US
network
Showtime.
"We
are
getting
an
opportunity
to
revisit
these
memorable
characters
who
will
still
be
relevant
and
avant
garde
three
decades
later," Lee
said
in
a
statement.
"With
all
that
said,
it
was
my
wife,
Tonya
Lewis
Lee,
producer
in
her
own
right,
who
had
the
vision
to
take
my
film
from
the
big
screen
and
turn
it
into
an
episodic
series.
It
had
not
occurred
to
me
at
all." Lee
added.
The
original
1986
movie
had
featured
Tracy
Camilla
Johns
in
the
character
of
Nola
Darling,
and
also
had
John
Terrell,
Tommy
Redmond
Hicks
and
Spike
Lee
in
the
movie.
