The cast of ‘New York Undercover’ is reuniting to kick off a national tour in honor of the show’s 30th anniversary.
Just days ago, we told you that Malik Yoba and Michael DeLorenzo reunited and teased something was in the works but didn’t provide details.
Now, the duo have announced the reunion tour with their co-star Luna Lauren Velez and are making promo stops along the way.
The trio kicked off the the tour on Monday for the April 29 episode of ‘Tamron Hall‘ where they stopped by to chat about the iconic show’s history, its legacy, and more.
“We’re here not just to talk about the 30-year anniversary, but how we can bring this moment forward,” Yoba, 56, explains. “Audiences has never had a chance to have this experience with us so we intend to go on the road as [a] cast.”
After host Tamron Hall and the audience react with shock, Yoba shares “another iconic” reveal.
“We’re going to hit markets across America. We’re working with artists that have performed on the show,” he continues as the crowd cheers.
New York Undercover aired from Fox from 1994 to 1999. The iconic police procedural followed the story of two undercover detectives, J.C. Williams (Yoba) and Eddie Torres (DeLorenzo). The series included a diverse cast and was one of the first procedurals to cast BIPOC actors in leading roles. It also told realistic storylines that tackles issues from parenting to racism, sexism and drug abuse.
In 2018, Deadline reported that ABC had ordered a pilot for a New York Undercover reboot series.
At the time, the outlet reported that the new series would pick up 20 years after the original show’s end. The reboot was to follow detectives Nat Gilmore and Melissa Ortiz and their investigations into the Big Apple’s most dangerous criminals from Harlem to Battery Park. Some original cast members were expected to reprise their roles.
The reboot was to be written and executive produced by Dick Wolf, co-creator of the original series, and Ben Watkins.
However, the network scrapped its plans for the revival. Though New York Undercover’s return to television looks unlikely, Deadline reported that the reboot was getting pitched to other networks in 2020.
