Bel-Air Season 3 Gets Release Date at Peacock

What to know about Bel-Air Season 3

The Peacock series is set in modern-day Los Angeles, and is a reimagining of the beloved The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. It looks at the story through a new lens, focusing on Will’s complicated journey from the streets of West Philadelphia to the gated mansions of Bel-Air. But as the two worlds collide, Will has to contend with the power of second chances all while navigating different conflicts, biases, and emotions.

“Will is doing Bel-Air his way,” reads the official Season 3 synopsis. “Being a part of the Banks family has given him a new perspective – it isn’t just about wealth, it means that Will now has options to lean into other things that excite him and has the privilege to dream bigger. As Will makes an exciting pivot, he finds a partner in Carlton, who desperately wants to leave his life of addiction behind and rebuild his damaged reputation. And while the dynamic duo has a lot of exciting wins, working together also reveals fundamental differences in their backgrounds and worldviews.”

The synopsis continues: “Can a partnership of such extremes work? Pressure at work and home will also pose challenges for Viv and Phil. How does a couple hold strong when their lives are at sea? Hilary’s romantic journey with LaMarcus will face some shocking hurdles, and Ashley’s views on romance will start to blossom as she comes of age the summer before she starts high school, and Geoffrey’s London past will come a little too close to home.”

The cast includes Jabari Banks (Will), Adrian Holmes (Phillip Banks), Cassandra Freeman (Vivian Banks), Olly Sholotan (Carlton Banks), Coco Jones (Hilary Banks), Akira Akbar (Ashley Banks), Jimmy Akingbola (Geoffrey), Jordan L. Jones (Jazz), and Simone Joy Jones (Lisa).

Directors on Bel-Air season 3 are Keesha Sharp, John Scott, Nick Copus, Mo McRae, Rachel Raimist, and Christine Swanson.

Carla Banks-Waddles returns as showrunner, with the series being executive produced by Will Smith, Terence Carter, James Lassiter, Miguel Melendez, Benny Medina, Quincy Jones, Andy and Susan Borowitz, Janeika James, Jasheika James, and Andy Reaser. Producers are Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, and Westbrook Studios, a division of Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith’s media company Westbrook Inc.
