(WTHR) — The life story of Madam C.J. Walker is coming to Netflix.
An eight-episode miniseries just got the green light. However, no air date has been released.
The series will star Oscar-winner Octavia Spencer and Lebron James, as an executive producer.
Madam Walker paved the way for generations of black, female entrepreneurs.
In 1910, she moved to Indianapolis and became a self-made millionaire by creating and marketing hair products for African-Americans.
