"Bel-Air"'s Coco Jones Says Her Hilary Banks Is "Too Black" — And She Loves It

In the age of reboots, there's nothing more original than breathing your own life into a character. We sat down with Coco Jones, Olly Sholotan, and Akira Akbar for their "fresh" take on how this Bel-Air differs from the one we knew in the '90s.

Of course, we couldn't miss what the original actors had to say about giving their characters to a different generation. Getting the "thumbs up" from someone who created a character "out of thin air" is a testament to how much Coco brought to her version of Hilary.

Take a look at the video above to see the new Banks kids on Peacock's "Bel-Air" reveal the Disney Channel shows that made them, and how each of them fit the culture of today.

Fresh episodes of "Bel-Air" drop Thursdays on Peacock.
