Prime Video’s Barbershop series has assembled its main cast. Two late-night alums, The Daily Show‘s Roy Wood Jr. and Saturday Night Live‘s Punkie Johnson as well as Brett Gray (On My Block) and E.J. Bonilla (The Old Man) have been cast as series regulars opposite Jermaine Fowler in the comedy based on the MGM movies.

The TV adaptation revolves around Travis “Trav” Porter (Fowler), who endeavors to follow in the footsteps of his grandfather, a legendary barber at the iconic “Calvin’s” barbershop in Chicago. And while the barbers are new, the shop remains just as lively, the customers just as argumentative, and the fades are still the dopest in the city — because at Calvin’s, the community comes together for way more than just a haircut.

Wood Jr. will play Robert, an ex con-turned-barber. Johnson will play Stella, a no-nonsense barber who is skeptical of Travis’ return. Gray will play the flamboyant and outspoken Kofi. Bonilla will play Fernan, a Bronx-born barber who becomes an ally to Travis.

The series is written and executive produced by Marshall Todd, co-writer of the original Barbershop movie. Also executive producing are Max Searle, who serves as co-showrunner; Kevin Hart, Bryan Smiley, and Mike Stein for Hartbeat; Bradley Gardner; Cameron Burnett, and Autumn Bailey-Ford for Prominent Productions; and State Street Pictures. Tiffany Brown will co-executive produce for Hartbeat. Barbershop is produced by Amazon MGM Studios.

Wood Jr., comedian and Emmy-nominated producer for PBS’ documentary The Neutral Ground, is best known for his eight years as a correspondent on The Daily Show from 2015-2023. His other credits include co-starring opposite Jon Hamm in the Fletch remake and Confess. Wood Jr.’s latest standup special, Lonely Flowers, was released by Hulu earlier this year. He’s repped by CAA, Mainstay Entertainment, and Del Shaw Moonves.
