'Black Panther' star Michael B. Jordan to produce WWII drama 'The Liberators'

Actor Michael B Jordan will be backing the upcoming World War II drama "The Liberators". The "Black Panther" star will produce the project through his banner, the Outlier Society Productions, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The film is about the 761st regiment in World War II, an entirely African-American combat unit, whose heroism led to the desegregation of the armed forces. However, there is no word yet on whether the 31-year-old actor will star in the project or not.

Jordan had recently announced that he will be adopting the inclusion rider for Outlier Society, a special clause in a contract that requires studios to hire a diverse crew and/or cast for a project.
