Peacock is developing a spinoff of the scripted drama “Bel-Air” titled “Hilary,” centered on Hilary Banks, with Coco Jones set to reprise the role. The project is described as an offshoot of the Will Smith-inspired series, which previously ran on Peacock for four seasons.
Multiple outlets report that “Hilary” is in development at Peacock and that it is being developed by writer-producer Tracy Oliver, along with Westbrook Studios and Universal Television. Deadline and Variety both describe Tracy Oliver as connected to the series, while TVLine and ComingSoon.net provide additional framing about the focus on Hilary Banks and her position within the “Bel-Air” universe.
The coverage generally aligns on the key details—Peacock’s development plans, Coco Jones starring as Hilary Banks, and the involvement of Tracy Oliver and the production companies behind “Bel-Air.” Where sources differ is mainly in emphasis: Deadline highlights Peacock’s potential milestone for scripted originals, while others focus more on early cast and project specifics and the premise around Hilary.
