LOS ANGELES: Empire star Jussie Smollett is executive producing Giants, a new digital drama set to launch this week on Issa Rae’s YouTube channel under the ColorCreative.TV banner.

Giants marks the latest project from writer, director and actor James Bland. The series follows three African-American millennials who are each battling their own inner giants as they approach age 30. The digital scripted series makes its debut on Wednesday, January 25.

ColorCreative.TV was founded by Issa Rae, the star and co-creator of HBO’s Insecure, and producer Deniese Davis, who directed Beyoncé’s “Formation” video and half the episodes of Insecure. The company’s aim is to raise awareness for writers from diverse backgrounds and provide a springboard for their careers by producing and selling their work to digital, network and cable platforms.
