Dustin Lance Black will write and co-produce an eight-hour scripted miniseries covering the history of the lgbt rights movement in the United States. The Hollywood Reporter broke the news but has few details about the storyline. The series will air on ABC, which is obviously the go-to place for gay history miniseries: The network is also developing David France's tale of unlikely aids activists in ACT-UP and TAG, adapted from his Oscar-nominated documentary How To Survive a Plague.
Elsewhere, the busy Black is adapting Jon Krakauer's Under the Banner of Heaven about a double murder in a remote Mormon community, and he's working with J.J. Abrams on an untitled earthquake feature.
