We chat with BelAir stars Cassandra Freeman, Coco Jones & Akira Akbar about shifting Banks family dynamics, new relationships, and Tatyana Ali's cameo in season 2 of the peacock series:
Bel-Air, which received much acclaim and fan love for its dramatic reimagining of the beloved 1990s sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, returned for season 2 this week. When the series opens, Will Smith runs into trouble in Wes Philadelphia and his mother sends him to live with his aunt and uncle in the wealthy LA suburb of Bel-Air. When Will moves in with his family and starts at the same school as his cousin, he tries to find his footing and figure out his place in this new world.
Cassandra Freeman: Big questions here, my friend. Thank you for coming in with the energy. The family dynamic shifts dramatically not having Will or Geoffrey in the house. Geoffrey not being there will make it very difficult for me to be an artist. For me, the first goal is get Geoffrey back in this house; to get Will back in this house.
Now her garden is starting to get quite weathered from the storm of it all, but actually Hilary becomes a blessing in her life. And there's some other blessings that happen, but also she has to push some other people to the side and have to raise her husband to understand who he needs to be to. She's got a lot of things to take care of.
Akira, there's a real passing of the torch moment this season, especially with the fist bump between your Ashley and Tatyana Ali, who's on the show as Mrs. Hughes. Can you talk about the impact that Mrs. Hughes has on Ashley, and how she changes Ashley's perspective on the world a little bit? Cassandra Freeman: I feel like I'm actually married to Phil right now. First of all, we're always in alignment about how we feel about people. But I'm just happy that Will has something that is positive that he's focused on, especially once certain things are taken away from him, that becomes basically the only place he can turn to to sort of finish off this world of basketball. So, I think it's fine.
