Yoooo he's L??!!!!!! Black Excellence ..........................................................
Yo, props to LaKeith Stanfield(Darius) for landing "L" in the upcoming Netflix adaptation.
I ran across their location shoots a few times over the summer, even read thru a script
It's crazy, a bunch of folks I worked with on my first show also worked on this. I was thisclose to working on this show
But yeah this is an accurate representation of Atlanta and a damn good show. Lookin forward to the rest of the season
They showed some in the trailers alreadyit would also be dope as fukk if a couple atl rappers made cameos
One of the first scripts I ever wrote is wild eerily similar to this almost 5 years ago.
If anything, lets me know I'm at least 5 years ahead of these Hollywood dudes and it was a damn good idea
Man dont tell me yall aint familiar with this type of nikka telling this story
I definitely have it on deck, even thought about shooting the pilot myself independently. I went back recently and started refreshing jokes and references, still funny (at least to me )You could still do it. Maybe tweak your premise a little of you feel it's TOO similar but if anything a show like Atlanta should prove to all brothers and sisters who have an idea that they should do whatever they can to realize it. We NEED more representation in creative media that is for us by us
Dude going to start a conversation by asking Earnest why he inside for the sole purpose of venting and telling his story. He didn't give a shyt about why he was in there, lolThat's the most AUTHENTIC Atlanta conversation I've ever heard on Tv
@ dude asking Earnest's pops if he could measure his tree
He was like, "Nah not right now"
The random ass comedy in this show gonna have me dead
