Stella Meghie (Everything, Everything) will direct from her own script, with Universal reportedly so impressed with the script they brought her on to direct as well.
Meghie will be working with Stanfield for the first time on this project, but she has already worked with Rae before.
Meghie directed an episode of Rae's HBO series Insecure, which she co-created and stars in, and she's slated to direct American Princess which has Rae starring.
