THE GAME stars Wendy Raquel Robinson ("Insecure") as sports agent Tasha Mack; Hosea Chanchez ("Black Lightning") as footballer Malik Wright; Adriyan Rae ("Chicago Fire") as Brittany Pitts, the daughter of Jason and Kelly Pitts; Vaughn Hebron ("Tyler Perry's The Oval") as Jamison Fields, an undrafted free agent; Analisa Velez ("Sneaky Pete") as Raquel Navarro, Brittany's best friend; and Toby Sandeman ("Power Book III: Raising Kanan") as Garret Evans, the top football player in the league.
THE GAME is executive produced by original show creator Mara Brock Akil, showrunner and writer Devon Greggory ("American Soul"), Salim Akil ("Black Lightning"), and original executive producer Kelsey Grammer ("Girlfriends") and Tom Russo ("Black-ish") of Grammnet NH Productions. Kevin Bray ("Insecure") will direct the first two episodes of the inaugural season. The series is produced by CBS Studios, Akil Productions and Grammnet NH Productions.
All nine seasons of THE GAME, which originally aired on The CW then BET, are also currently available to binge on Paramount+. The series will be distributed internationally by ViacomCBS Global Distribution Group.
