OWN’s new tv series “Love Is_” from Mara Brock Akil and her husband Salim Akil is premiering on the network June 19th, and today we get our first real look at the series.
In the first official trailer, set to Brownstone’s “If You Love Me” we get to see who the players are in the upcoming romantic series that draws inspiration from creators Mara Brock Akil and Salim Akil’s own relationship journey of falling and staying in love.

The cast includes series regulars Michele Weaver as ‘Nuri,’ a bubbly personality with big dreams who is struggling to make a name for herself as a sitcom staff writer while juggling an assortment of romances that only leave her partly fulfilled; Will Catlett as ‘Yasir,’ an aspiring writer/director who is down to his last two unemployment checks and lives (unhappily) with his on-and-off again ex ‘Ruby,’ played by Yootha Wong-Loi-Sing. Tyrone Marshall Brown portrays ‘Sean,’ Yasir’s opinionated friend who possesses great taste and is full of ideas but lacks follow through; and Idara Victor stars as ‘Angela,’ a member of the same writing staff with Nuri who doesn’t always agree with everything Nuri says, mainly because she is a disgruntled drama writer stuck in a comedy she doesn’t believe in. TV veteran Kadeem Hardison is ‘Norman,’ the executive producer of the hit sit-com “Marvin” and tough boss of Nuri and Angela, who is hard to impress and even harder to amuse; Clarke Peters portrays present day ‘Wiser Yasir,’ handsome, still-confident and Nuri’s husband of many years; and Wendy Davis is ‘Wiser Nuri,’ who is a more relaxed, happy, and comfortable version of herself both in life and in her marriage to Yasir.
OWN
