The courtroom drama ‘Just Mercy’ is bringing the Oscar winner Jamie Fox and Michael B. Jordan together. Recently the rumors were making the rounds that the two can join hands.
Oscar winner Jamie Fox is in talks to join Michael B. Jordan in 'Just Mercy. The courtroom drama is directed by Destin Daniel Cretton for Warner Bros.
In a story by Hollywood Reporter, the feature narrates the story of the case that launched the career of Bryan Stevenson, the founder of Equal Justice Initiative--- the organization that fights for the underprivileged, wrongly condemned and Death-row Prisoners.
The story will focus on Steven's first case where a black man, Walter McMillian, was wrongly sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit. Stevenson won the case by successfully proving that the prosecution had suppressed the evidence, leading to McMillian's exoneration.
Michael B. Jordan will be co-producing the series with Gil Netter and Arthur Spector. Jammie Fox, who was last seen in the film 'Baby Driver, is repped by CAA, LBI Entertainment, and Ziffren Brittenham.
Soon we can see the two working together. The news is not yet confirmed, but we will forward for the two sharing the same stage.
