Congrats to singing duo Chloe x Halle! The two will have recurring roles on Freeform’s new “Black-ish” spin-off “Grown-ish” starring Yara Shahidi. According to S&A, the sisters will portray twins and track stars—Sky and Jazz.
Also joining the ladies on the show are Francia Raisa as the “outspoken conservative freshman” Ana and Jordan Buhat as Vivek, a first-generation Indian-American student at college.
“Grown-ish” follows Shahidi’s character, Zoey as she heads off to college and quickly discovers that not everything goes her way once she leaves the nest. The series will also feature her “Black-ish” co-star Deon Cole along with Chris Parnell, Trevor Jackson and Emily Arlook.
The 13-series show will start production next week and will air in 2018. It is executive produced by Kenya Barris, Anthony Anderson and Laurence Fishburne.
Stay tuned…
