HBO Max has released the much-anticipated reunion special of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air earlier than expected.

The Fresh Prine of Bel-Air, which first aired on NBC in 1990, catapulted Will Smith to fame as an actor. Smith was only known as a rapper then.

The show starred Will Smith, Tatyana Ali, Karyn Parsons, Joseph Marcell, Daphne Maxwell Reid, Alfonso Ribeiro, Janet Hubert. and the late James Avery.

Twenty-four years later, HBO Max had recently announced that the show would return for a reunion special. However, the show dropped earlier than expected.

Actor Will Smith had posted on social media announcing that he had asked the streaming service to release it earlier, and "to give the people what they want." Smith also attached a short teaser to the post. 

The reunion special is now streaming on HBO Max.
