Spike Lee Confirms School Daze Sequel!? An HBCU Classic!

Spike Lee Confirms School Daze Sequel!?  An HBCU Classic!
Posted By: Will Moss on February 25, 2014

Last year, the classic Spike Lee joint School Daze turned 25! Given its monumental anniversary, many fans of the film inquired if there would be a sequel. Recently Spike Lee spoke to Black&Sexy TV and confirmed there would a sequel. According to the Rickey Smiley Morning Show, Spike Lee stated:

“I had the script for ‘School Daze.’ But, what people have to understand is that it’s a contemporary version. So it’s the same school, Mission College, 25 years later. Hopefully I can get Laurence Fishburne to play Dap. He’ll be the president now of the school.



And we would deal with issues around Historically Black Colleges today.”

Premiering in 1988, School Dazed revolved around young men at the fictional historical black college, Mission College. These men are separated by political and social views while the women in the film focus on skin-color complexes.

According to Lee, the sequel will further shed light on the black greek pledging process and homophobia at historically black colleges.
