It’s no joke! “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” is being rebooted as a serious drama.
And, judging by a new trailer for the dramatic series “Bel-Air,” debuting Feb. 13 on the Peacock streaming service, things get very serious.
The trailer, released Monday, shows Will, played by series star Jabari Banks, reflecting on his new life of luxury while remembering the very dark circumstances that led to his leaving West Philadelphia for Bel-Air, California.
“I hope one day we can talk why you’re really here,” Will’s cousin, Carlton, says ominously.
The new trailer shows Will going from firing a gun on a Philly basketball court to attempting to play lacrosse in California.
“What the hell is my life,” he wonders at one point.
The first three episodes of “Bel-Air” ― which is executive produced by Will Smith ― will drop Feb. 13 on Peacock, right after the streaming service hosts the Super Bowl. New episodes will follow weekly.
