After publicly critizing Tyler Perry for his choice of television and movie projects, Spike Lee teams up with Training Day director Antoine Fuqua for the adaptation of the graphic novel 'Miss: Better Living Through Crime,' with Spike in the chair as executive producer.
A new company, Vigilante Entertainment, is developing the project, which revolves around Nola and Slim, two unlikely partners in crime in the 1920s and 30s in New York. Nola is a poor white girl who has learned to survive by hook or by crook since being expelled from the orphanage. Slim is a black pimp with an uncertain past, trying to keep one foot out of the grave. The story revolves around how the two forge a partnership as killers for hire.
Adapting the graphic novel is John Ridley, who wrote George Lucas' upcoming World War II action film 'Red Tails.'
