From Tracy McMillan comes the new half-hour comedy UnPrisoned, starring the incomparable Kerry Washington and Delroy Lindo.
The story plot inspired by McMillan’s life follows Edwin Alexander (Lindo) as he is released from a 17-year stint in prison only to be reintroduced into the life of his daughter Paige (Washington), who is a relationship therapist, and grandson Finn (Faly Rakotohavana). The messy arrangement is further complicated when Edwin moves in with Paige and Finn and gets involved with Paige’s personal life.
The 8-episode series order, also starring Edwin Lee Gibson, Marque Richardson, Marla Gibbs, and Jee Young Han, premieres March 10 on Hulu.

Executive producers include McMillan, Washington, Lindo, Yvette Lee Bowser, Jen Braeden, Kevin Bray, Pilar Savone, and Joy Gorman Wettels. Washington’s production banner, Simpson Street, along with Onyx Collective, Anonymous Content, and ABC Signature produced the series.
The Hulu series follows an epic run for Washington, who has not slowed down since her tantalizing role as Olivia Pope on Scandal. Since the end of the Shonda Rhimes political drama in 2018, Washington has starred in the television mini series Little Fires Everywhere and Netflix’s The School for Good and Evil. She also executive produced Reasonable Doubt, starring Emayatzy Corinealdi, and has five projects in the works.
UnPrisoned is available for viewing on Hulu.
