School’s back in session! The Saved by the Bell reboot series, featuring faces both familiar and new, is coming to Peacock by 2020, and the second trailer for the upcoming series has been released.
Created by 30 Rock and Great News! writer/producer Tracey Wigfield, the new Saved by the Bell features, of course, a Governor Zack Morris (Mark-PaulGosselaar) who’s seeing political controversy because of his underfunding certain California high schools. So, he sends a group of lower-income kids back to Bayside High, where he himself graduated and broke the fourth wall so many years ago. This new/old Bayside High features A.C. Slater (Mario Lopez) as a gym teacher, Jessie Spano (Elizabeth Berkley) as a concerned parent, and a new slate of kids with various relations to our faves, played with charisma by Haskiri Velazquez, Mitchell Hoog, Josie Totah, Alycia Pascual-Pena, Belmont Cameli, and Dexter Darden.
The Saved by the Bell reboot comes to Peacock later in 2020.
