DANIEL FAJEMISIN-DUNCAN AND MARLON SMITH TO ADAPT 'THE UPPER WORLD'
28.04.2021
Daniel Fajemisin-Duncan and Marlon Smith are adapting Femi Fadugba's debut novel, THE UPPER WORLD for Netflix.
The time-shifting story centres on Esso, a man caught in a deadly feud who realises he has an unexpected gift: access to a world where he can see glimpses of the past and the future. A generation away, a young woman named Rhia is walking to football practice in 2035, unaware that the mysterious stranger she’s about to meet desperately needs her help to avert a bullet fired 15 years ago.
Daniel Kaluuya is attached to star and produce the project, along with Screen Arcade’s Eric Newman and Bryan Unkeless.
