LOS ANGELES (AP) — Spike Lee will direct a multi-part documentary for ESPN on
Colin Kaepernick that features extensive interviews with the former San
Francisco 49ers quarterback and access to his personal archive.
ESPN Films announced Tuesday that Lee would weave never-before-seen footage
from Kaepernick's archive to provide “a full, first-person account of his
journey.”
Kaepernick last played pro football in 2016, the same year he started
kneeling during the national anthem to protest racial injustice. Although the
NFL has encouraged teams to look at Kaepernick, he has yet to receive another
pro contract.
No title or release date for the docu-series was announced.
Lee directed the 2009 film, “Kobe Doin' Work,” on Lakers great Kobe Bryant.
That film examined Bryant's work ethic and basketball prowess through a
single Lakers game against the San Antonio Spurs.
