Will Smith might be one of the busiest actors currently working in Hollywood, what with Gemini Man coming out this weekend, the next Bad Boys film on the way, and his recently revealed TikTok obsession. But even so, the 51-year-old star is still making sure that the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air spinoff comes to fruition.
Rumors about a reboot or revival have been circulating for years, with a 2015 report that Smith would helm a new edition of the show that launched him to worldwide fame. Although that project never got off the ground, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed in an October article that a new Fresh Prince spinoff series is in the works. Apparently, along with Smith's cross-platform holding company Westbrook Inc., the actor will develop the series, adding on to the hefty royalties he receives from the 1990s NBC sitcom, which is licensed to air in 193 territories.
