Last month the company that owns the rights to “Fresh Prince,” filed documents to trademark the name for toys. The sudden filing sparked speculation of a reboot, especially after the original “Fresh Prince” took to Instagram to endorse an animated take on the beloved hit.
However, since then, new details have been revealed about the possibility of a reboot.⠀⠀
According to TMZ, the company that owns the rights to the “Fresh Prince” recently filed trademark docs for a new television show, which means a reboot is in fact in the works. However, the Prince may be taking a back seat on this project, as the applications are for the rights to the new “Fresh Princess.”
