According to Deadline, ABC’s Black-ish prequel series Mixed-ish has had a bit of a shake-up in the cast, with Mark-Paul Gosselaar stepping in to replace Anders Holm as the male lead. The show is set in the ‘80s and is about a young Rainbow Johnson—the character played by Tracee Ellis Ross in Black-ish Prime—as she and her mixed-race family have to face “constant dilemmas” about whether to “assimilate or stay true to themselves.” Gosselaar will be playing Bow’s father, Paul Johnson, alongside Southside With You’s Tika Sumpter as Bow’s mother (played by Anna Deavere Smith in the main show).
