According to a recent report from Deadline, the half-hour, single-camera comedy series will be produced by writer/executive producer Felicia Pride and executive producers Debbie Allen, Mandy Summers, Tom Werner, Gina Prince-Bythewood and Reggie Bythewood.
While few details about the series are known at this time, the series will reportedly follow the daughter of Whitley Gilbert (Jasmine Guy) and Dwayne Wayne (Kadeem Hardison), two characters from the original series. Their daughter will also attend Hillman College, the school that was central to the original series.
A Different World originally premiered in 1987 and was intended as a spin-off of the hugely popular series The Cosby Show. The series originally starred Lisa Bonet reprising her role as Denise Huxtable and followed her life as a student at Hillman.
