Will Smith has posed for a picture of his old cast-mates from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, the wildly popular sitcom that launched his acting career.

The show, which aired from 1990 until 1996, was staple for a generation of teenagers in the US and abroad.


And Will, 43, said he was delighted to be able to see his second family in the run up to Christmas at a special charity event last week, before he shaved his head.

He said: 'Got the Holiday season started right with a Fresh Prince of Bel Air reunion.

'There's nothin' like spending Holidays with fam!'

The picture was taken last week at a luncheon for the charity Sweet Blackberry, which was founded Karyn Parsons, who played airhead weather girl Hilary on the show

As they were: Will as he appeared in the early 90s show's first season, with the show's butler Geoffrey and his aunt Vivian also appearing in this pic

The other cast members there were Tatyana Ali, who played his little cousin Ashley, Alfonso Ribeiro who played his snobby cousin Carlton and James Avery, who was the Banks family patriarch Uncle Phil.

Sadly missing was Joseph Marcell, who played the Banks' butler Geoffrey, and the two actresses who filled the role of matriarch Aunt Vivian.

Will posted the exciting photograph on his Facebook page earlier today, and it proved extremely popular.
