Shankar says Superman Vs. the Ku Klux Klan has been indirectly energized by Bill Maher’s put-downs of comic book culture and comments about the late Stan Lee.
Superman Vs. the Ku Klux Klan is based on the book of the same name by Rick Bowers.
Adi Shankar, the nerd-icon producer behind Netflix’s highly successful Castlevania (which has been renewed for a third season) is joining with PaperChase Films (The Kindergarten Teacher, Skin) and Marc Rosen (Sense 8, The After) to bring the story of Superman Vs. the Ku Klux Klan to life.
This true-to-life story follows Stetson Kennedy, a man who courageously went undercover to infiltrate the KKK in 1946.
