Bounce has announced a partnership with MGM to produce a new original series, “Act Your Age.”
The multiple-camera, half-hour comedy tells the story of three vibrant, successful Washington D.C./Northern Virginia-area women in their 50’s who are each at a personal crossroads and who decide the best way forward in life is together. “Act Your Age” stars Kym Whitley and Tisha Campbell with special guest star Yvette Nicole Brown.
Whitley plays Bernadette, a successful, no-nonsense real estate developer. Campbell plays Keisha, the wild card of the group who is always up to something, and Brown plays Angela, the former First Lady of Norfolk, Virginia, who is looking to redefine her life after being widowed by her husband, a revered career politician.
The multi-generational sitcom also features Mariah Robinson and Nathan Anderson as the 20-something children of Angela and Bernadette, respectively.
Alyson Fouse created the series and serves as showrunner and executive producer. The series is produced by Mark Burnett, Barry Poznick and Bradley Gardner and co-executive producer Ken Ornstein.
The 16-episode first season of “Act Your Age” has begun production in Los Angeles and will premiere on Bounce in the spring of 2023.
“Act Your Age” is the newest Bounce original series, joining “Johnson,” the critically acclaimed hit show focusing on four lifelong best friends, and “Finding Happy.” Both of these shows come from Eric C. Rhone’s & Cedric The Entertainer‘s production company, A Bird And A Bear Entertainment.
