Ryan Coogler Proximity Media production company with the media juggernaut.
It will see the 34-year-old – who is currently working on ‘Black Panther II,’ develop multiple new television series for the studio, with the first being a drama based in the Kingdom of Wakanda for Disney+.
Per the agreement, Proximity will also create television for other divisions of Disney too.
Ryan Coogler says:
“It’s an honor to be partnering with The Walt Disney Company. Working with them on Black Panther was a dream come true. As avid consumers of television, we couldn’t be happier to be launching our television business with Bob Iger, Dana Walden and all the amazing studios under the Disney umbrella. We look forward to learning, growing, and building a relationship with audiences all over the world through the Disney platforms. We are especially excited that we will be taking our first leap with Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso and their partners at Marvel Studios where we will be working closely with them on select MCU shows for Disney+. We’re already in the mix on some projects that we can’t wait to share.
