Spike Lee IDs The Director Of George Lucas' RED TAILS!!

Merrick here...
Spike Lee has revealed who'll direct RED TAILS, George Lucas' long-in-development tale of African American pilots in World War II.

It was like eight men at the roundtable. And two of ‘em, Lee Archer and Roscoe Brown, was the 8th pilots of the Tuskegee Airmen, which I might add, this spring George Lucas is finally doin’ his Tuskegee Airmen film, “Redtails." He’s gonna produce it and a young African- American director, Anthony Hemingway, is gonna direct it. He’s done several episodic TVs, and is a young director so I’m looking forward to that and hopefully “Miracle” with “Redtails” coming’ up will generate more films to show the untold story about the participation.

...says Lee in his interview with Ebert, which can be found HERE!! Awkwardly identified only as "a black director" by Lucas in THIS INTERVIEW out of the UK, Hemmingway comes to the project from a strong TV background, including CSI: NY, CSI: MIAMI, THE WIRE and Sci Fi's BATTLESTAR GALACTICA.
