A film, titled ‘Zola’ and directed by Janicza Bravo, has now been made based on that viral Twitter thread.&nbsp;</p> <p> <br> </p> <p>Allison P. Davis, a features writer at New York Magazine, recently profiled Zola. Davis details how many different interests tried to take control of Zola’s story during the filmmaking process —&nbsp;and how Zola feels the final product centers her voice. Davis’s article, called “The Real Zola,” is available to read (and listen to) in Apple News+.</p>
