After producing, directing and appearing in Time: The Kalief Browder Story, Jay-Z is moving onto yet another series. He will produce and film The Trayvon Martin story with the Weinstein Company, about the 17-year old who was shot and killed by George Zimmerman.

They have acquired the rights to Suspicion Nation: The Inside Story of the Trayvon Martin Injustice and Why We Continue to Repeat It and Rest in Power: The Enduring Life of Trayvon Martin. The plan is to make a six-part docu-series with Jay Z producing, making sure Trayvon’s life and legacy were honored. Jay Z, Harvey Weinstein, David Glasser and Trayvon Martin’s parents closed the deal.
