Peacock’s highly anticipated drama series Bel-Air, a contemporary reimagining of the beloved and culture-defining ’90s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air starring Will Smith, has announced the full main cast that will be joining newcomer Jabari Banks, who will star as Will in the show.
“Set in modern-day America, Bel-Air is a serialized one-hour dramatic analogue of the 90’s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air that leans into the original premise: Will’s complicated journey from the streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air,” reads the official synopsis.
T.J. Brady and Rasheed Newson serve as co-showrunners on the series, which is co-written and directed by Cooper.
Peacock previously ordered two seasons of the series adaptation of Morgan Cooper’s viral fan film Bel-Air.
