Director Spike Lee’s multi-part documentary series for ESPN Films about the former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who sparked a national debate when he protested against racial injustice nearly a decade ago, will not be released, the film-maker and ESPN said.
“ESPN, Colin Kaepernick and Spike Lee have collectively decided to no longer proceed with this project as a result of certain creative differences,” ESPN said in a statement to Reuters on Saturday. “Despite not reaching finality, we appreciate all the hard work and collaboration that went into this film.”
