Smith told Cooper and Collins:
We have just officially closed the deal with Peacock with an unprecedented two-season-order from a pitch.
I’ve been in this business for 30 years and that does not happen. They ordered two full seasons of Bel-Air based on the quality of the pitch and the work that you guys have done.
Peacock announced that Bel-Air will be a ‘serialized one-hour dramatic analogue of the ’90s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air that leans into the original premise: Will’s complicated journey from the streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air’.
Revealing a little bit more about what viewers can expect from the upcoming series, Cooper said:
There’s so many layers to these characters. We’re really going to peel back the layers of these characters and explore this world in an unforgettable way. It’s a show that’s really going to surprise people in the best way possible.
