Raise your red cup, Grown-ish fans, because it's time to say goodbye! ET is exclusively debuting the trailer for the second half of the Freeform series' final season.
Season 6B picks up right where the first half left off, with franchise stars Marcus Scribner and Yara Shahidi reprising their role as Andre Johnson Jr. (aka Junior) and Zoey Johnson for the final time. In part two of the final installment, Junior prepares to take his first steps into adulthood as graduation approaches and everyone else around him gears up for their last grand adventure.
As the trailer shows, for some, like Zoey, that grand adventure means finally seeing her dream of reviving her clothing line come true. For others, like Andre, it means learning how far you're willing to go to create the life you want for yourself.
Like the installments before it, Grown-ish's season 6B will be a star-studded extravaganza featuring several original cast members, including Francia Raisa, Emily Arlook, Jordan Buhat and Luka Sabbat, who will guest star alongside Druski (as Brock), Kelly Rowland, Lil Yachty, Anderson .Paak and The Free Nationals, and Latto.
Series regulars Trevor Jackson, Diggy Simmons, Daniella Taylor, Justine Skye and Tara Raani will also star in the final season. Malcolm-Jamal Warner will guest star as Doug's dad, Darnell, and Rich Paul will cameo as himself.
Watch the trailer above.
Shahidi announced that season 6 would be the show's last chapter in March 2023, two months after the series was renewed. In a video posted to the series' YouTube page, Shahidi explained that the Emmy-nominated Black-ish spinoff will also air its 100th episode during the final season.
"You guys have been with us since season 1, and it has been such an honor to play Zoey and grow up alongside her for the past nine years," the 24-year-old said in the video. "Your support over the last five seasons has really meant the world to us, the cast and crew, and we wanna take the time to thank you all for the love and support that has kept us going."
She added, "And like I said, there's still another season to go and trust me, it's gonna be big."
Grown-ish's ending marks the conclusion of creator and executive producer Kenya Barris' -ish franchise. Black-ish ended after an eight-season run on ABC in April 2022. The prequel series Mixed-ish aired for two seasons on ABC between 2019 and 2021, and although Barris spoke of plans for an Old-ish spinoff starring Laurence Fishburne and Jenifer Lewis, it ultimately didn't move forward.
Barris said in a statement at the time, "We've spent nearly a decade telling our stories through the -ish series and to say it has been an amazing journey would be an understatement. To be able to watch Yara, Marcus and our entire Grown-ish family grow up in front of (and in many ways alongside) us over these past several years has been both a joy and an honor. From the stories we've told to the talent we've fostered and, most importantly, the memories made, I could not be more proud of everything we've accomplished and the -ish family I've been a part of."
Last April, ET spoke to Shahidi at the premiere of her new film, Peter Pan and Wendy, where she dished on the show coming to an end this summer with its sixth season.
"I mean, we hit 100 episodes. Shows don't get to do that anymore," Shahidi said. "So, I think it's bitter, but primarily sweet, because we got to tell a lot of story, and I've gotten to be a lot of Zoey over the past six years."
Scriber echoed her sentiment when speaking to ET ahead of season 6's premiere.
"I've been playing this character for 10 years; he's a great guy, I love the dude. And I'm excited for where Junior has been able to take things," he shared. "I never could have imagined when we started black-ish that this is where the character would end up. So I'm very thankful and just happy with where he's gone, and I'm like, 'OK, it's time to say goodbye.'"
Despite a mature approach to the end of the road, Scribner admitted that he's "gonna be sad" when all is said and done. "I'm gonna miss my crew, my cast, the people that I've known for years and years [who have] become like a family to me at this point," he added. "It feels like I'm graduating again."
Season 6B of Grown-ish premieres March 27 at 10 p.m. ET on Freeform and streams the next day on Hulu.
