Raven-Symoné is moving forward with her recently announced spinoff that’s being dubbed That’s So Raven 2, and now we know one person who will be returning. Anneliese van der Pol will be reprising her role as Raven’s best friend Chelsea in the sequel series.
In the new series, Raven and Chelsea are both divorced and raising their children. The pilot finds Chelsea and her son, Levin, moving in with Raven and her two kids, Nia and Booker. And as previously announced, one of Raven’s kids has inherited her gift.
The pilot is currently being written, and production is set to start early in 2017. It’s possible that the new That’s So Raven will be airing in the summer or fall of 2017.
While everyone is excited that Anneliese will be reprising her role as Chelsea, many are wondering if Orlando Brown will be returning as Eddie. There have been a few questionable instances over the last year that lead people to believe he will not be returning.
Yesterday YouTube star Alonzo Lerone tweeted that he was being cast in the role of Eddie.
So happy to announce that I will be replacing Eddie on "That's So Raven 2" as Raven's love interest. Thank you @ravensymone ? pic.twitter.com/rpfUaD7iIE

But his subsequent tweet revealed that he was possibly just joking.
ugh! why can't people be happy for me and my lies? ?? https://t.co/yllhdWmjTE

Do you think the original Eddie will return? Nevertheless, are you excited for Anneliese van der Pol? This show is going to be great!
