“The Game” is coming back, and fans will get to see some of their faves return along with some new cast members.
On Tuesday, Paramount+ announced Mara Brock Akil’s hit TV series “The Game” will premiere on Thursday, November 11. In addition, it mentioned that some new characters would be introduced, including Tim Daly, who will play Colonel Ulysses S. Thatcher, and Toby Sanderman will play the role of Garrett Evans.
While there are some new faces, we’ve still got veterans. Coby Bell, who played the stingy Jason Pitts, will be coming back to reprise his role. Brittany Daniel, who played Kelly Pitts, and Pooch Hall, who played Derwin Davis, will also be making a comeback with guest appearances. Wendy Raquel Robinson and Hosea Chanchez will also come back as their roles Tasha Mack and Malik Wright.
The show will be back with 10 episodes.
The Game will be a “modern-day examination of Black culture through the prism of pro football,” read’s the show’s official synopsis. “The team will tackle racism, sexism, classism, and more as they fight for fame, fortune, respect, and love — all while trying to maintain their souls as they each play THE GAME.”
