Project: Rodney King

ENGAGEMENT DETAILS
Long standing Buffalo 8 Management client and renowned actor Roger Guenveur Smith approached Buffalo 8
about producing his stage performance RODNEY KING, a one man show focusing on the life and times of Rodney
King, in to a film adaptation.

DELIVERY DETAILS
Buffalo 8 worked to package the project with director Spike Lee - a long time collaborator with Roger Guenveur
Smith - and was able to set up the project as a Netflix Original Film.

RODNEY KING went on to receive critical success after being released on Netflix with a current 100% Rotten
Tomatoes Score.


“A powerfully crafted performane that does nothing less than restore the humanity to a man who has, over a quarter-
century, been reduced to a talking point a symbol.”

- Sheri Linden / Hollywood Reporter
