Peacockโs highly anticipated drama series Bel-Air, a contemporary reimagining of the beloved and culture defining 90s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, has announced the full main cast.
The series regulars include:
- Newcomer Jabari Banks as โWillโ
- Adrian Holmes as โPhillip Banksโ (At That Age, V Wars) Cassandra Freeman as โVivian Banksโ (The Enemy Within, Atlanta)
- Olly Sholotan as โCarlton Banksโ (Run Hide Fight, Evolution of Nate Gibson)

Set in modern-day America, Bel-Air is a serialized one-hour dramatic analogue of the 90โs sitcom โThe Fresh Prince of Bel-Airโ that leans into the original premise: Willโs complicated journey fromโฏthe streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air. With a reimagined vision, Bel-Air will dive deeper into the inherent conflicts, emotions and biases that wereโฏimpossible to fully explore in a 30-minute sitcom format, while still delivering swagger and nods to the original show.
