All Black 'Steel Magnolias' coming to Lifetime TV

Well, I kinda saw this coming... When I was tipsy.

There is a new version of the classic 'Steel Magnolias' being developed and it's features an all Black cast:
Lifetime is developing an original movie based on the hit feature, which will be produced by Craig Zadan and Neil Meron and Sony Pictures TV, where the duo’s Storyline Entertainment has an exclusive deal for event long-form programming. Kenny Leon, who directed Storyline/SPT’s previous collaboration, the 2008 ABC movie A Raisin In The Sun, is attached to direct the new Steel Magnolias, which, like the movie, will be set in Louisiana and explore the bond among a group of women in the present day.
Not sure about this one. I hope it's good, but could be called something else?
