Hill will star as family patriarch Bill Williams opposite the previously cast Saycon Sengbloh, who will play family matriarch Lillian. Kariuki will play Kim Williams, the teenage sister of main cast member Elisha Williams, who plays Dean. Hill's character is a "a music professor by day and a funk musician by night – described by Adult Dean as 'The baddest guy I knew,'" according to Variety. "Almost always calm and composed, his favorite words are “be cool.” Bill wants his family and their black, middle class neighborhood to remain self-sufficient and he puts his money where his mouth is."
