Facebook Watch has renewed Red Table Talk through 2022.
Per Deadline, the Jada Pinkett Smith co-hosted series will continue to stream on the Facebook platform thanks to a 3 year deal signed with Smith.
Said Pinkett Smith:
“I’m incredibly proud of Red Table Talk, and thrilled to build upon this franchise with my family and with Gloria, Emily and Lili. Red Table Talk has created a space to have open, honest and healing conversations around social and topical issues, and what’s most powerful for me is hearing people’s stories and engaging with our fans in such a tangible way on the Facebook Watch platform. I’m excited to see the Estefans put their spin on the franchise and take it to new places.”
Furthermore, the social media network’s streaming arm has given a go on a spinoff with the Estefans dubbed Red Table Talk: The Estefans. The new series will feature music icon Gloria Estefan, her daughter an up-and-coming musician Emily Estefan, as well as her niece Lil Estefan, a Daytime Emmy Award-winning TV host.
Mina Lefevre, head of development & programming for Facebook Watch, had the following to say of the spinoff:
“We’ve been fortunate enough to be in business with such wonderful partners and are thrilled to expand the Red Table Talk franchise with Jada Pinkett Smith, the Estefans and Westbrook Studios. Red Table Talk is a shining example of how content, community and conversation come together on Facebook Watch. We’re proud to keep this conversation going around topics our fans care about.”
