Adnan Syed is about to be tried – again – in the court of public opinion.

HBO announced Wednesday that it is co-producing a four-hour documentary series, The Case Against Adnan Syed, which will revisit the 1999 murder of Baltimore high school student Hae Min Lee. The series will be directed by Amy Berg and co-produced in the United Kingdom by Sky Atlantic.

Syed was Min's high school boyfriend. His original conviction and his subsequent efforts to get a new trial have galvanized people throughout the world since they were featured in 2014 in the Serial podcast, which was produced by former Baltimore Sun journalist Sarah Koenig.

According to an HBO, the series has been in production since 2015 and will feature new discoveries as well as "groundbreaking revelations that challenge the state's case".

The series will explore issues of cultural conflict and features "exclusive access" to Syed, the defense team, and to both Syed's and Lee's former teachers.
