A New Trailer & More Details To Know

In just a couple of weeks, a new season of Bel-Air will be in our hands. Peacock is finally returning with a new season of The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air remake more than a year after its second season concluded. The show’s third season is focused on Will Smith’s first summer in Bel-Air and the many highs and lows that come with it. Additionally, we’ll also get to see more of Carlton, Hilary, Ashley, Mr. & Mrs. Banks, Jazzy, and others as the year’s warmest months only complicate things for everyone in the show.

So, with the season three premiere date just around the corner, let’s get you up to speed with everything you need to know about the new season of Bel-Air.

Plot

Season three of Bel-Air was detailed in a press released shared by Peacock. You can read it below.

Season 3 is summer season of Bel-Air! No school. No uniforms. Just summer sizzle. Pools, beach parties, bonfires, fireworks, Juneteenth celebrations and lots of summer lovin’.

Season 3 explores questions like, how do you prove yourself in a world that views you in limited ways? How do you reach beyond your comfort zone to create new opportunities for yourself? How does a family rebuild broken trust?

Bel-Air has always been a show with a strong cultural point of view. In addition to our soapy teen and family stories, this season we’ll have a lot of great discussion on the gentrification happening in South LA and how so many people are capitalizing on the economy at the cost of the community. And this convo will become a backdrop through the season.
