Fresh off her Academy Award nomination for “Beyond the Lights”, Gina Prince- Bythwood is already diving into her next project. She is currently working on a project for Fox and Imagine about the “Black Lives Matter” movement.

While she is mum on the details of the project, she told Black Enterprise“That’s my hope for my films: that people can go see it and see something to aspire to,” she says. “But also change the perception and see our humanity.” 

Prince-Bythwood is a veteran of TV and movies. She’s started as a writer on A Different World and Felicity before directing Love & Basketball and The Secret Life Of Bees.

While we’re still on the fence about Scandal’s Ferguson episode, we’re excited to see this project.
