Shonda Rimes is at it again, to give us another heart stopping television show!
With “Grey’s Anatomy” coming to an end you would have thought Shonda would take a break to focus on shows like “Sandal” or “How To Get Away With Murder.” Sandal is still currently in it’s new season. And with “How To Get Away With Murder” Season 2 on its way. But Shonda’s mind is always at work. This time she has teamed up with writer/director Dee Rees, movies Pariah and Bessie (HBO). Who will write the screen adaptation. As well as FX to produce the new historical drama series. The series is from the Isabel Wilkerson’s 2010 book “The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America’s Great Migration”.
The book is about the story of 6 million African Americans moving from the south into the north and western regions of the country from 1915 to 1970. It follows three characters in different decades. It is definitely a book club reading for the women that like to read before they watch the movie.
The two writers will bring African-American literature to the screen to influence us by also giving us knowledge about the past. With Rimes and Rees the new series will excel in views.
