Black-ish Season 7 Cast : Who will be in?
We expect the cast to remain almost the same as Anthony Anderson playing Andre ‘Dre’ Johnson. Anderson has earned quite a name for himself with his performance in movies like Me, Myself, Irene, The Departed, and Law and Order. Season 7 won’t feel the same without him, so he definitely will be there. Tracee Ellis Ross as Rainbow Johnson is another prominent character in the show. The show also features Yara Shahidi, Miles Brown, Marcus Scribner, and Paw Patrol-Marsai Martin as Zoey Johnson, Jack Johnson, Andre Johnson Jr., and Diane Johnson. Other than these stars, a few other characters have developed a lot in the run of six seasons, so we expect Jenifer Lewis, Anna Deavere Smith, Jeff Meacham, and others to return in Season 7.
Black-ish Season 7 Plot : What exactly is it about?
Black-ish is a show that gives us an example of how a show can develop and open to various themes. Originally it was a representation of generation differences with a humorous touch. The show has been airing for six years now, and it has become a lot more than just comedy. The show discusses various social and political issues ranging from Black lives matter to individuals’ mental health. The show’s central character is Dre, who is trying to raise his kids in a white neighborhood without losing their black identity and coping up with the American norms at the same time. The representation of various issues with a sprinkle of humor is the backbone of the show. We are expecting this season will also be a balance of humor and serious problems.
