According to The Hollywood Reporter, Marcus Scribner will hop over to the Freeform spinoff from black-ish, starring as Zoey’s younger brother, Andre Johnson Jr. aka Junior.

Marcus has previously appeared on the show in a guest star capacity, but for season five, he will be joining the show as a series regular.

In addition, Black-ish showrunner Courtney Lilly will also move to the spinoff, alongside Zakiyyah Alexander, and they will serve as co-showrunners for the coming season.

The renewal news comes just a few weeks after grown-ish wraps up its fourth season.

The current season is focusing on Zoey and her pals as they gear up to graduate from college.
