Garcelle Beauvais, best known from her role as Fancy from the 1996-2001 sitcom, The Jamie Foxx Show, and producing partner Lisa L. Wilson have acquired a one-hour scripted series, Barely Legal, about a Haitian Immigrant family from writer Mike Gauyo.

Beauvais and Wilson will serve as executive producers via their Beauvais Wilson Productions shingle. The duo recently produced Lalo’s House, a feature that highlighted the devastating world of child sex trafficking. Beauvais and Wilson’s company is repped by Innovative Artists and attorney Mark Johnson of Behr of Abramson Levy, Llp. Gauyo is repped by Rain Managment Group.
