Unruly is a six-part limited series about boxing legend Jack Johnson to be played by two-time Oscar winner Mahershala Ali. It is based the PBS documentary Unforgivable Blackness: The Rise and Fall of Jack Johnson, produced and directed by Ken Burns, and its companion book by Geoffrey C. Ward.
Unruly is described as an unapologetically Black, no-holds-barred telling of Jack Johnson, the world's first Black Heavyweight Boxing Champion. This bold exploration depicts the champion's rise to athletic greatness and the costs he paid for his skin and defiance, which created a blueprint for Black resistance in every justice movement for generations to come.
