Not quite. Still won't be rated R but at this point won't be awful. After this damn near 4 year fiasco with Blade I have no faith

Lovecraft country was a really really good series.Never seen Lovecraft- is this director a good choice?
Only up from here right?
I gotta thank Ali here. He told the previous director he wasn't having it.

Good to see they finally ramping up but got damn... it's gonna be another 2 years away

2 years is not too far away if they start production asap.

With as much downtime from casting to filming Ali better look like Lee/Chan/Snipes/Van Damme in the martial artists department.

Love craft country wasn’t a very good show. It had the outline of a good show but there were some issues. Hope they don’t bungle this.Never seen Lovecraft- is this director a good choice?

He did the first episode of Lovecraft Country. I'd recommend watching it, you don't have to watch the whole show just treat it like a short story.
I wish it was R too.
