The Last O.G. centers on Tray (Morgan), an ex-con shocked to see just how much the world has changed when he is released from prison for on good behavior after a 15-year stint. Returning to his newly gentrified Brooklyn neighborhood, he discovers that his former girlfriend, Shay (played by emerging breakout star actress and comedian Tiffany Haddish), has married an affable, successful white man (Ryan Gaul) who is helping raise the twins (Taylor Mosby & Dante Hoagland) Tray never knew existed. Wanting nothing more than to connect with his kids, but having neither the money to support them nor himself, Tray falls back on the skills he learned in prison to make ends meet while treading on unfamiliar territory.
The third season will see Tray forced to find a new home after having finished his time at the halfway house and his food truck going up in flames. He heads to a gentrified Brooklyn occupied by colorful, hipster neighbors and lives the life of a “hood legend,” giving walking tours of the city that is changing around him. Elsewhere, Tray’s ex-girlfriend Shay is presented with a major business opportunity that would lead to big changes for the whole family.
The Last O.G. also stars Cedric the Entertainer as the head of the halfway house where Tray is staying, and Allen Maldonado as Tray’s cousin Bobby, who helps him adjust to life on the outside. Executive producing with Morgan and Peele are Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, John Carcieri, and Joel Zadak of Principato Young.
