Los Angeles, CA- Hollywood news and entertainment outlet Deadline has reported that an Ava DuVernay directed Nipsey Hussle documentary has been picked up by Netflix for eight-figures. The documentary is co-produced by DuVernay’s ARRAY distribution agency and Hussle’s Marathon Films.
“A co-production between DuVernay’s ARRAY banner and Hussle’s Marathon Films, the project was secured by Netflix after a pretty intense bidding war hosted recently by CAA for its When They See Us client. The home of DuVernay’s 2016 acclaimed 13th documentary, the Reed Hastings-led streamer picked up the Nipsey film for high eight figures to beat out some deep-pocketed contenders.”
