The report noted that this new show will follow the life of Dwayne Wayne and Whitley Gilbert’s daughter as she navigates her time at the beloved Hillman College. While official casting has yet to start, discussions with original cast members about their interest and availability have been promising.
From 1987 to 1993, fans of A Different World were delighted to watch the romance between Dwayne and Whitley unfold and evolve throughout the series.

“I learned the hard way on other sets. I was like, ‘Oh, actors don’t like to get notes from other actors,’” Guy told hosts Jada Pinkett Smith and her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Jones.
“Because Kadeem and I talked about everything…But when I did that with other actors, there I learned the hard way on other sets. I was like, ‘Oh, actors don’t like to get notes from other actors.’ Kadeem and I talked about everything, right…but when I did that with other actors there was a brace, and I said ‘Oh, I didn’t know I wasn’t supposed to do that.’”
According to Deadline, alongside Pride, the half-hour comedy is being developed by executive producers Debbie Allen, Mandy Summers, Tom Werner, Gina Prince-Bythewood, and Reggie Bythewood. Allen, Prince-Bythewood, and Bythewood all contributed to the original NBC hit series, a spinoff of The Cosby Show, which aired for six seasons.
Allen served as director and producer while Prince-Bythewood and Bythewood were writers, and Werner executive produced for The Carsey-Werner Company.
