The CW is developing a female-led drama inspired by the 1989 film, Lean on Me, which starred Morgan Freeman per Deadline. The drama hails from Wendy Calhoun (Station 19), LeBron James & Maverick Carter's SpringHill Entertainment, John Legend, Mike Jackson and Ty Stiklorius' Get Lifted, and Warner Brothers Television. Wendy Calhoun will pen the script.
When a spirited young black teacher Amarie Baldwin scores the principal job at an Akron, Ohio, public high school, she must dig deep to transform a failing campus into an urban oasis. In a time when education and school safety have life-or-death stakes, Amarie will take on a broken system that tests her mettle, love life and family. But can she keep her moxie in check in order to embody the aspirational educator that motivates and uplifts an entire community?

Every day 100's of items are submitted to us and we don't always have the time to make separate posts for the news and/or there is so much that it would quickly push all other items off the homepage.
So a result we've come up with the idea of the Newsreel, which will feature smaller shows and news items as they happen.
There will be a new Newsreel each day, and as news is added we will update the post and and push it back to the top of the site so that you can see that new items have been added. A tweet of the item will also be sent to our @SpoilerTV account.
New Items will be listed at the top of the article.
This will allow us to provide more news on more shows in a much more timely fashion
