Barris and his Khalabo Ink Society shingle were behind Netflix’s animated music series “Entergalactic” and docs “Blood Brothers: Malcolm X & Muhammad Ali” and “Civil: Ben Crump,” as well as an updated version of “Cheaper by the Dozen” for Disney+. Among projects on the horizon are a reimagining of “The Wizard of Oz,” which he is writing and will direct for Warner Bros.; a scripted Netflix comedy series starring musician Vince Staples; and a team-up with Snoop Dogg in the youth football comedy “The Underdoggs,” set up at MGM. Barris’ landmark comedy “Black-ish” ended its eight-season run in April, but the franchise lives on via spin-off “Grown-ish.”
