What if The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was reimagined for 2019? That’s the goal for this newly released fan-made concept trailer that was directed and written by Morgan Cooper.
Like most 90’s kids, I grew up watching Fresh Prince. Even as a kid, I always thought there was more to the story… so I decided to make this. S/O to incredible team who worked on this! @tldtoday @kustoo @BeleafMel @easymccoy @madebyutah @txyxuxs
