Executive Produced by Salim and Mara Brock Akil (The Game), Black Lightning brings DC’s first African-American superhero to life for the first time ever in a live-action TV adaptation.
Though not a part of his Arrow-verse, Berlanti will play an important role in bringing Black Lightning to TV screens, the extent of which we now know.
Given the level of talent working behind the scenes on the show, Black Lightning looks like it might be another winner for both the Akils and Berlanti.
Now, as one of the producers of FOX’s Black Lightning, his grip on the genre has grown even tighter, which is great news for fans.
