via Deadline:
Maleah Joi Moon is at the center of the new chapter, playing Deborah Wayne, the youngest daughter of Hillman royalty: Whitley Gilbert-Wayne (Jasmine Guy) and Dwayne Wayne (Kadeem Hardison). Deborah is a sheltered young woman, a free spirit with a flair for the spotlight and a big heart who’s still figuring out her own path at Hillman.
The trailer reveals Deborah will have a special relationship with Dr. Langhorne, played by Debbie Allen. Allen has been part of the continuation from the start as an executive producer and director of the premiere episode. The legendary multi-hyphenate, who directed 83 episodes of the original series, was not previously announced as having a role on the show.
The single-camera comedy will release all 10 half-hour episodes on September 24.
