First Look Trailer: ‘BEL-AIR’ [Peacock’s ‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ Reboot]

Published: Monday 10th Jan 2022 by Sam

‘BEL-AIR,’ the hotly anticipated reboot of ‘The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,’ takes its throne next month on Peacock. 

Based on the iconic Will Smith-led sitcom, the reimagined incarnation of the show sees it revived as a dramedy – as first seen in Morgan Cooper‘s highly viral 2019 teaser.

Smith is heavily involved in the show’s reimagining as he, Quincy Jones, and Benny Medina reprise their roles as co-producers (after having served in similar capacities during the run of the original).

Rising actor Jabari Banks takes on Smith’s iconic role in the series, which will premiere Super Bowl Sunday (February 13) with three episodes initially and one episode a week thereafter.

Ahead of its arrival on the NBC-helmed streaming service, check out the first full-length trailer below…

  • Jabari Banks as “Will”
  • Adrian Holmes as “Phillip Banks” (At That Age, V  Wars)
  • Cassandra Freeman as “Vivian Banks” (The Enemy Within, Atlanta)
  • Olly Sholotan as “Carlton Banks” (Run Hide Fight, Evolution of Nate Gibson)
  • Coco Jones as “Hilary Banks” (Let it Shine, Vampires vs. The Bronx)
  • Akira Akbar as “Ashley Banks” (We Can Be Heroes, Captain Marvel)
  • Jimmy Akingbola as “Geoffrey” (Most Dangerous Game, In The Long Run)
  • Jordan L. Jones as “Jazz” (Rel, Snowfall)
  • Simone Joy Jones as “Lisa” (The Chair, What If)

    I can’t believe more people aren’t excited about this. It appears to me that they did a good job building out the story based on the concept trailer that was done years ago.

      People are tired of reboots, thats why they arent excited

    This is going to crash and burn.

    I’m not sure it’s going to do well (largely because NO ONE asked for it), but I must admit the trailer has me intrigued.

    Did they make it into a Drama Series? 🙁

    I honestly think this looks pretty good. I do hope there is some charm/comedy sprinkled in though. It being too serious is going to make it feel like every other show out right now.

    The NEW characters don’t appear to have the same feel as the original characters. Feels like a completely different show all together.

  9. XYZ January 11, 2022

    Judging from the trailer, they could have easily made this a new show, without that dumb reboot stamp…
