Freeform just announced additions to the cast of its forthcoming series “Grown-ish.”<\/p>\n
According to a network press release, Francia Raisa and Jordan Buhat have joined the show as series regulars. Chloe and Halle Bailey, who comprise the R&B duo Chloe x Halle, will recur on the show.<\/p>\n
Set to premiere in early 2018, “Grown-ish” is a spin-off of the popular ABC series “black-ish.” The show centers on Zoey Johnson (Yara Shahidi), who heads off to college and “quickly discovers that not everything goes her way once she leaves the nest.”<\/p>\n
Raisa and Buhat will play Ana and Vivek, respectively. Ana is an outspoken conservative freshman at Southern California University, while Vivek is an Indian-American freshman with an “endearing lack of self-awareness.”<\/p>\n
Chloe x Halle will appear as Sky and Jazz, sisters who are both on the college track team.<\/p>\n
Previously confirmed cast members include Shahidi, Deon Cole, Chris Parnell, Emily Arlook and Trevor Jackson.<\/p>\n
Freeform has ordered 13 episodes of the single-camera comedy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Freeform confirms additions to the cast of its “black-ish” spin-off.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[1048],"tags":[2995,6696,9625,5597,9627,9626],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n
