Black Hollywood heart-throb Morris Chestnut is making a return to where he began; the 'Boyz n the Hood' actor stars in the new ABC series 'V,' which premieres Nov. 3 at 8 p.m. ET.
The thrilling new drama is a re-imagining of the hit 1980s series about the world's first alien encounter. With huge spaceships simultaneously appearing over 29 cities around the world, the Visitors (or V's) seem to promote a message of peace. Through their generous offer to share advanced technology, the V's quickly build a following that may be overlooking a more malevolent agenda.
Chestnut plays Ryan Nichols, a Wall Street whiz who is faced with a life-altering decision when the V's show up. It's a long way from his early days - where he cut his teeth starring in the Patti LaBelle-fronted sitcom in the early 1990s.
Since then, he's become a urban movie box-office draw with movies such as 'The Best Man,' 'Two Can Play That Game' and 'Not Easily Broken.'
Doing a show like nothing else currently on TV is what prompted the Cerritos, California native to get back into the small screen.
"This was not a science-fiction show that was going to be driven by special effects," he told USA Today. "This was a science-fiction show that was going to be driven by the characters with special effects as a backdrop, and that was what appealed to me."
