Spike Lee is expanding his partnership with Netflix, signing a multiyear deal that will have him directing and producing new films for the stramer.
Lee’s partnership will begin with Netflix this January, and through the deal, Netflix is also agreeing to invest in and provide support to develop new talent and increase diversity representation in the entertainment industry.
The Oscar-winner has already collaborated with Netflix four times, including most notably for his Oscar-nominated film “Da 5 Bloods,” but also for the 2017 TV special “Rodney King,” for producing the indie film “See You Yesterday” from 2019, and for producing and directing episodes of the series “She’s Gotta Have It” based on his 1986 film of the same name.
