Out actors Zachary Quinto and Billy Porter have joined the upcoming Disney+ reboot of the iconic early 2000s cartoon, The Proud Family

Keke Palmer joined the original cast of Kyla Pratt, Tommy Davidson, Paula Jai Parker, Cedric the Entertainer, and more last August as Maya Leibowitz-Jenkins, a new kid on the block described as a teenage activist.

Zachary Quinto and Billy Porter have joined Proud Family: Louder and Prouder as Barry Leibowitz-Jenkins and Randall Leibowitz-Jenkins, Maya's mixed-race adoptive parents.

EJ Johnson has also been added to the cast as Michael Collins, "Penny's best guy friend who is a non-conforming trendsetter, serving fierce looks at school and on the basketball court," according to Entertainment Weekly's exclusive first look of the show.

Looks like Proud Family: Louder and Prouder is ramping up to be an exciting queer-inclusive series, and we can't wait! It's expected to launch on Disney+ in 2022.
