Tyra Banks to Guest Star in Final Season of “Bel-Air”

Tyra Banks is making a triumphant return to Bel-Air! The supermodel and actress is set to guest star in the upcoming fourth and final season of the drama series on Peacock.

In this exciting season, Banks will play a former college classmate of Aunt Viv, portrayed by Cassandra Freeman, who brings a big personality to the mix. This casting marks a full-circle moment for Banks, as she first made her acting debut over three decades ago in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, appearing in seven episodes as Jackie Ames, Will’s ex-girlfriend from Philadelphia.

The final season of Bel-Air delves into some captivating storylines. Will, played by Jabari Banks, navigates senior year while grappling with expectations and looking forward to the future. Carlton, portrayed by Olly Sholotan, faces the consequences of life-altering decisions that could jeopardize his path, while the bond between the boys serves as a lifeline for them.

There are also unexpected twists with Phil and Geoffrey, played by Adrian Holmes and Jimmy Akingbola respectively, as their loyalties are tested. Viv embarks on a journey of reinvention in motherhood, Ashley starts high school with a rebellious streak, and Hilary goes on a path to self-discovery. The cast is rounded out by Simone Joy Jones as Lisa and Jordan L. Jones as Jazz.

Behind the scenes, the creative team is top-notch. Carla Banks-Waddles returns as writer, showrunner, and executive producer. Morgan Cooper, the mastermind behind the viral “Bel-Air” reimagining, will direct the final two episodes. A star-studded lineup of executive producers, including Will Smith, Quincy Jones, and others, ensures that Season 4 of Bel-Air, produced by Universal Television and Westbrook Studios, will be a hit.

Catch the premiere of Season 4 on November 24 on Peacock. While Tyra Banks is well known for her modeling career and as the brains behind America’s Next Top Model, her acting chops are equally impressive, with roles in films like “Life Size” and TV shows like “Gossip Girl” and “Insecure.” It’s going to be an exciting season with Banks back in the mix!
