Peacock’s hit drama series “Bel-Air” returns for a third season, offering a fresh take on the classic “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” sitcom. This season promises a summer filled with personal growth, budding partnerships, and challenges for the entire Banks family.

Set in modern-day Los Angeles, “Bel-Air” reimagines Will’s journey from West Philadelphia to the affluent world of Bel-Air with a dramatic twist. Will grapples with newfound opportunities and dreams bigger than ever before. He finds an unlikely ally in Carlton, who seeks to overcome addiction and rebuild his life. While their partnership brings exciting wins, it also exposes the vast differences in their backgrounds.

The trailer hints at mounting pressure for both Viv and Phil as they navigate personal and professional challenges. Hilary’s romantic life takes a turn with LaMarcus, and Ashley experiences the blossoming of youthful romance as she approaches high school. Even Geoffrey’s past comes back to haunt him.

Inspired by Morgan Cooper’s viral trailer that reimagined the beloved 90s sitcom, “Bel-Air” offers a contemporary lens on themes of ambition, self-discovery, and the complexities of navigating two vastly different worlds. The series stars Jabari Banks as Will and features a creative team led by showrunner Carla Banks Waddles and executive producer Morgan Cooper.

Season 3 of “Bel-Air” premieres on Peacock on Thursday, August 15th.
