Complex Networks has picked up the first scripted series for the Complex brand. The media company has inked a deal with Adaptive Studios to distribute Grown, which won Adaptive and Project Greenlight Digital Studios‘ Get The Greenlight contest two years ago.
Grown, which comes from Haitian-American filmmakers Joshua Jean-Baptiste and Edson Jean, will tell the story of two cousins looking to make the most of their lives in Miami. When Jean-Baptiste and Jean were announced as the Get The Greenlight winners back in January 2016, their project was known as #Josh. Now, two years later, it has a new name and a new distributor.
“Through our projects, we work to enhance Miami’s cultural relevance and seek to color the multi-media canvas with the rich, yet complex, characteristics of the Haitian American culture,” Jean-Baptiste and Jean said in a press release.
A trailer for the project is currently available on YouTube. Grown is expected to premiere via the Complex website in May.
