The celebrated filmmaker will write, direct, and produce Black, White, & Blue, a drama set to follow a woman named Fela Blackburn whose life unravels after she loses her husband at the hands of a police officer. "Determined to get to the bottom of the incident and seek justice," the synopsis reads, Fela "leans on her best friend, Marley Wells, who is a lawyer, and her husband, Tony Wells, who is a former cop turned private investigator, to use their influence to find the truth." As the truth unfolds, however, Fela learns her entire world is "rooted in lies and betrayal," the synopsis concludes. Kat Graham; Tyler Perry; Meagan Tandy.
