Grown-Ish Season 5 Update: The successful ABC comedy “Black-ish,” created by Kenya Barris, has inspired several spin-offs, including the Freeform series “Grown-ish.” The “Black-ish” episode “Liberal Arts” functioned as a covert pilot for the latter program, whose official series debuted on Freeform in 2018.
Fans of the program are likely interested in learning whether Season 5 of “Grown-ish” will air given that “Black-ish” will conclude with its ninth season next year and that its spin-off “Mixed-ish” was canceled earlier in 2021 (via Deadline).

The Cast of Grown-Ish Season 5
Originally an ABC “Black-ish” spinoff, “Grown-ish” is getting ready for its fifth season. Grown-ish season 5 will return to your screens in July, Freeform announced on July 6 with a teaser. Here is what you can anticipate from the Grownish Season 5 cast.
Unexpectedly, not all the cast members from the previous season will be returning for Grownish’s fifth season.
The cast members from season 4 who will be departing are Luca (Luka Sabbat), Jazz (Chlöe), Vivek (Jordan Buhat), Ana (Francia Raisa), and Nomi (Emily Arlook).
Additionally, “This Is What You Came For” season 5 will feature six new characters. Only eight episodes will make up the college-themed television series.
While Zoey and the gang are enjoying life after graduation, Junior and his group are arriving to start their college careers by enrolling at Cal U. When Zoey goes back to Cal U to accompany Junior on his first day of courses, she quickly realizes that she might miss Cal U more than she had previously acknowledged. In addition, after getting to know his new classmates, Junior goes to Doug’s White Party to escape the dorm life.
Grown-ish season 5 will see the return of several cast members, including Yara Shahidi’s Zoey Johnson, Trevor Jackson’s Aaron Jackson, and Diggy Simmons’ Doug. Marcus Scribner, who performs the role of “Junior,” Zoey’s brother, will join as a regular.
The fifth season of Grown-ish premieres on July 20. Hulu will start streaming on July 21.
What’s The Plot Of Grown-ish Season 5?
“Grown-ish” centers on Zoey, who first appeared in “Black-ish,” as she enrolls at Cal U and attempts to start an adult life on her own without her family. At Cal U, while dating other students like Aaron, Zoey forms a core friendship group that includes Ana and Nomi.
When Season 4’s first half closes, Zoey and Aaron appear to be on the verge of breaking up. After learning that Luca, Zoey’s ex, has given her a job offer, Aaron strikes him at a party before leaving.
Then, when Zoey goes to his home to look for him, she learns that Aaron was successful in getting her an internship completion certificate, which means she is no longer in need of Luca’s work. In the meanwhile, Ana sleeps with Vivek, and Kiela (Daniella Perkins) and Doug’s relationship is still having issues.
The plot will become more evident when Season 4B and Season 5 are broadcast, perhaps in 2022, but it currently appears that the two seasons will mostly center on Zoey’s attempts to finish college with her pals while simultaneously trying to work things out with Aaron.
