Thomas Jefferson is coming to Black-ish. Well, sort of. Deadline reports Hamilton star Daveed Diggs will star in season three of the ABC series.
The actor recently won a Tony for his dual performance as Jefferson and the Marquis de Lafayette in the popular Broadway musical.
In season three of Black-ish, Diggs will play Johan, the brother of Rainbow Johnson (Tracee Ellis Ross). Showrunner Kenya Barris described the character as “sort of a hipster, entitled kid who gets on Dre’s nerves. … He’s constantly on a search for the best conditioner for his hair. He’s probably gone to Penn or Wharton and could have gotten a great-paying job, but he’s trying to find himself. That attitude more than anything makes Dre want to strangle him.”
The new season of Black-ish premieres on September 21st.
