Paramount+ Releases Key Art for ‘Frasier’ Sequel Series

Paramount Pictures

According to Deadline, Paramount+ has revealed two key art posters for the upcoming Frasier sequel series. The series will debut on the streaming service on October 12.

One of the images feature Kelsey Grammer (Cheers, Boss) as the titular Frasier in front of the Boston skyline with a bunch of moving boxes, furniture, and luggage. This is a nod to the title card of the original Frasier, which included the Seattle skyline.

The other poster is of Frasier in the center of busts of William Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Benjamin Franklin, and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Both posters feature Frasier dressed in business casual attire, which is uncommon for the character.

The sequel series stars Grammer reprising his role of Frasier Crane. It follows Frasier as he returns to Boston to face new challenges, forge new relationships, and fulfill old dreams. Grammer also executive produces the series.

Along with Grammer, the series will star Nicholas Lyndhurst (Only Fools and Horses, New Tricks) as Frasier’s old college buddy turned university professor Alan, Jack Cutmore-Scott (Oppenheimer, Deception) as Frasier’s son Freddy, Jess Salgueiro (Mary Goes Round, Canadian Strain) as Freddy’s roommate Eve, Toks Olagundoye (The Rookie, The Neighbors) as Olivia, Alan’s colleague and head of the university’s psychology department, and Anders Keith (Variations, Frasier) as Frasier’s nephew David.

It is written by Joe Cristalli (Life in Pieces, Perfect Harmony) and Chris Harris (How I Met Your Mother, The Goodwin Games). James Burrows (Cheers, Will & Grace) directs the first two episodes of Frasier. Jordan McMahon (Light as a Feather, You’re Not a Monster) and Tom Russo (The Game, Light as a Feather) executive produce with Grammer.

The original Frasier premiered on NBC on September 16, 1993 and starred Grammer, David Hyde Pierce (The Perfect Host, A Bug’s Life), Jane Leeves (The Resident, Hot in Cleveland), and John Mahoney (Say Anything, The Iron Giant).
