EXCLUSIVE: Netflix is in early development on Pride, a movie based on the 2018 YA novel by Haitian American author Ibi Zoboi.
The project, a modern — and timely –retelling of Jane Austen’s classic Pride and Prejudice, comes from President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama’s Higher Ground and the company behind the book, Alloy Entertainment.
