The drama will tell the story of the detainees held at Guantanamo Bay detention camp and those who defend and condemn them.
Oliver Stone will direct the entire first season of a new scripted drama Guantanamo.
The controversial prison drew the ire of many human rights organizations over the treatment and torture of the 780 prisoners held at the detention camp.
Opened after 9/11, Guantanamo was created as a place to interrogate and imprison suspects in the war on terror.
