Talk about your whole life getting flipped-turned upside down…
Peacock has announced that it has officially ordered two seasons of the previously-rumored Fresh Prince of Bel-Air dramatic reboot known as Bel-Air. The reboot will be based on the 2019 viral short, Bel-Air, by Morgan Cooper. The short was a parody trailer that put a dramatic twist on the comedic premise of the original sitcom. The trailer would go on to garner six million views on YouTube and famously gained the attention of star Will Smith.
Not only did Smith endorse Cooper’s concept but he also helped shepherd it into an actual reboot via he and wife Jada Pinkett-Smith’s Westbrook Studios imprint. Smith today revealed Bel-Air’s pickup to Cooper and the world at large through his social media feeds. You can watch the YouTube announcement below.
Smith will stay on as an executive producer through Westbrook Studios. Universal Studios will produce as well.
