Raven-Symone leaving The View, developing That's So Raven spin-off
Actress-turned-TV-host Raven-Symone is leaving her gig as the co-host of talk show The View to develop a That's So Raven spin-off.
The 30-year-old starred in the Disney series from 2003 to 2007.
She will exit The View before the end of the year (16) to focus on
the new series.
"I'm excited and sad, but mostly excited," she said on Thursday's
(27Oct16) show. "I have an announcement to make: No, I'm not
pregnant. We're doing a That's So Raven 2... I'm very excited.
"There's no title yet, but I'm calling it That's So Raven 2," she
continued. "It's Raven Baxter. It's still me. But I am a mother
this time. I'm going to be a single mother raising two kids, and
one of them learns that she has (psychic) visions (like my
character)."
Symone will relocate from New York to Los Angeles to executive
produce and star in the new series. Casting is reportedly
underway.
