“We’ve been developing a sequel forever,” Union told Variety. “But for folks who don’t exactly understand how long development can take in Hollywood, that could be five minutes or 50 years.”
Kirsten Dunst, Eliza Dushku, and Jesse Bradford’s iconic movie “Bring It On” skyrocketed their fame into the stratosphere. The film spawned five direct-to-video sequels as well as a Halloween-themed TV sequel but without any of its original cast members. This was Union’s launchpad to success in television and cinema for many years to come – cementing her place among Hollywood elites with films like “Love & Basketball.”
Octavia Spencer stars as Poppy, an investigative journalist turned true-crime podcaster, in Season 3 of Apple TV+’s “Truth Be Told.” Joined by Gabrielle Union’s Eve, a principal with unorthodox methods, they work together to keep missing Black girls at the forefront. The anthology series, starring, and executive produced by Spencer is based on Kathleen Barber’s novel “Are You Sleeping.”
Union and Spencer have been friends for well over two decades. Union shared with Variety.
“We met on a show called ‘City of Angels.’ We kind of bonded over this really long-ass scene that I kept messing up,” Union said. “I had to say ‘pumping epinephrine’… We would just crack up all day long… She’s one of the few people in this town who is exactly who you think.”
Spencer welcomed Union aboard “Truth Be Told” this season.
“Day one on set, we hit the ground running. She is all about getting the work done, creating great art,” Spencer said. “And she brought advocacy. She’s Gabrielle Union. She has a big presence, and we’re thrilled to have her on the show.”
Mekhi Phifer, David Lyons, Ron Cephas Jones, Merle Dandridge, Tracie Thoms, Haneefah Wood, Mychala Faith Lee, and Tami Roman all make their presence felt in Season 3.
Nichelle Tramble Spellman, the former showrunner of the series, is now exclusively executive producing due to other commitments, as she revealed to Variety. As someone who personally knew Maisha Closson and had wanted her on staff for past seasons, Spellman appointed her with the role of showrunner for season 3. Alongside Spellman and Closson, Reese Witherspoon, Spencer Peter Cherin, Lauren Neustadter, Jenno Topping, Mikkel Norgaard, and Brian Clisham are all instrumental executive producers on the project.
Get ready for the thrilling season 3 of “Truth Be Told,” premiering January 20th on Apple TV+ with a whopping ten episodes!
