Black Lightning may soon be the next DC superhero on the small screen. Greg Berlanti, the man in charge of the DC Universe on CW, has created a team that includes Mara Brock Akil & Salim Akil to bring Black Lightning to the small screen.
Deadline revealed the following about the character and his story:
“Written by the Akils, Black Lightning centers on Jefferson Pierce. He made his choice: he hung up the suit and his secret identity years ago, but with a daughter hell-bent on justice and a star student being recruited by a local gang, he’ll be pulled back into the fight as the wanted vigilante and DC legend Black Lightning.”
The potential series is now being shopped to the networks. Will you check out Black Lightning if the series makes it on the air? Tell us what you think.
