Under the arrangement, Kaepernick’s company Ra Vision Media will produce scripted and unscripted stories that explore race, social justice and the quest for equity, a statement from Disney said.
Kaepernick, whose kneeling protests sparked debate and became a symbol of the fight against racial injustice, filed a grievance against the NFL in 2017, claiming collusion as no teams signed him after he parted ways with the San Francisco 49ers. He and the NFL settled in 2019. “Colin’s experience gives him a unique perspective on the intersection of sports, culture and race, which will undoubtedly create compelling stories that will educate, enlighten and entertain,” said Bob Iger, Disney’s executive chairman.
The docuseries will focus on the last five years of Kaepernick’s life through interviews and archival footage. Kaepernick said that he hopes to “elevate Black and Brown directors, creators, storytellers, and producers, and to inspire the youth with compelling and authentic perspectives” through the partnership, which will included scripted and unscripted programs.

Who cares? I mean seriously who cares and I'm a football fanatic. Wait till this season starts. It will all unravel due to Roger's poor decision making. WWG1WGA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Probably less than a minute of movie time showing him with a football.

I’m feeling better now. Kaepernick deserves a Medal of Honor from the next PresidentoftheUnitedStates and an opportunity to create a documentary that becomes part of the analogs of truth in our History !
He is such an oppressed man.

No doubt with affirmative jobs and school! they wouldn’t be employed or in school? That’s why smarter students get screwed? He will steal an opportunity that would be best used on someone better and smarter suited for this job!
I feel sorry for him. He’s being used like a pawn.
Who?
Colin Spielberg...
Not watching that garbage.
Hamilton was a slave owner and a racist and Disney is making millions off of slavery and Kaepernick now hooks up with Disney a supporter of racism and slavery 😂😂CancelHamilton canceldisney
Showing what? That he’s rescued and adopted by a white couple while moan for white supremacy? CollinKaepernick Garbage
Life of a low life
A great investment decision for Disney. I bet there will be lots of eyeballs on this Kapenerick documentary, including mine, which means lots of revenue for Disney.
Even better!
I have no reason to care about an athlete’s life. They are all over paid to play a game. The pandemic proved how useless these people are.
Put him on the football field... let’s see those amazing skills.
Wave magic wand and puff, now you're a producer.
Life documentary..? The fucker's barely 30.
