The Fresh Prince of Bel Air ended over 20 years ago. No length of time has stopped the demand for a follow-up.

Will Smith has been reticent to commit to any more new Fresh Prince material. But that doesn't mean it's not coming.

They are also looking to corner the merch market; they are trying to get the trademark Fresh Princess for bags, shirts, backpacks, and even footwear.
