The series still needs a name but it was originally named, Harlem.
According to Deadline the show was created, written and executive produced by the writer of the successful movie Girls Trip, Tracy Oliver.
The article says the show will star Meagan Good, Grace Byers, Jerrie Johnson and Shoniqua Shandai (pic below).
We know Good from her long movie career and Byers from her role on Empire.
Deadline says Johnson worked on a project called Mother's Milk and Shandai I Am The Night.
“Meagan Good plays Camille, a stylish, sunny professor of anthropology course “Sex and Love” at Columbia University. While Camille has extensive knowledge about the dating and mating norms of many cultures, she has a hard time navigating the dating choices within her own life. Grace Byers plays Quinn, an optimistic, creative, and romantic talented fashion designer, Quinn is a trust fund kid who lives a life paid primarily by her parents. Shoniqua Shandai plays Angie, a smart, filter-free party, aspiring singer, who never met an impulse she did not follow and is living with Quinn rent-free. Jerrie Johnson plays Tye, an alpha, fierce, queer successful app developer who prefers keeping vulnerability and feelings at arm’s length, causing her to date women who are not always her intellectual equal.”
One media outlet refers to this series as a new Girlfriends.
This isn't the only "new role" announcement coming from the Byers family. Grace Byers' husband Trai Byers is set to star in a new movie, The 24th.
She posted on Instagram about both announcements.
