Meet the Cast of Black Lightning in New Cast Photos
The first cast photos for Black Lightning have been released. The new CW series is based off the DC Comics series and it stars Cress Williams, Nafessa Williams and China Anne McClain.
In the series, “Jefferson Pierce is a man wrestling with a secret. Nine years ago, Pierce was gifted with the superhuman power to harness and control electricity, which he used to keep his hometown streets safe as the masked vigilante Black Lightning. However, after too many nights with his life and his family on the line, he left his Super Hero days behind. Almost a decade later, Pierce’s crime-fighting days are long behind him…or so he thought. But with crime and corruption spreading like wildfire, Black Lightning returns — to save not only his family, but also the soul of his community.”
You can see more photos from the shoot here. Black Lightning will premiere on the CW during its mideason. Fingers crossed we get out first look at the series at San Diego Comic Con next month!
