The first trailer for the forthcoming Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot has prompted a divisive reaction from fans of the original.
It comes across like a Fresh Prince reboot afraid of people remembering that it’s a Fresh Prince reboot.”
Unlike the beloved Nineties TV show, which took the form of a multi-camera sitcom, the new reboot, entitled Bel-Air, is more strictly dramatic.
Will Smith, who starred in Fresh Prince as a fictionalised version of himself, is involved in Bel-Air as a developer and executive producer, but the role of Will will be played by Jabari Banks.
