Grasie Mercedes is the latest to join the cast as a series regular of the forthcoming NBC comedy Grand Crew from Brooklyn Nine-Nine‘s Phil Augusta Jackson and Dan Goor.

Grand Crew follows a group of young professionals are all trying to navigate the ups and downs of life and love in Los Angeles — and they always find time to gather at their favorite bar to “wine down” and unpack it all. There’s Noah, a hopeless romantic too eager to settle down; Nicky, a go-getter in both real estate and romance; Sherm, a low-key genius who plays the dating odds; Anthony, whose true love is his career; and Wyatt, who’s relieved to be married and out of the dating scene. And just like wine, their friendship gets better with time. Mercedes will play Fay, a recently divorced transplant to Los Angeles who becomes fast friends with the regulars at Eastside Cru.

Representing the Dominican commuinity, Mercedes joins a cast that includes Nicole Byer, Justin Cunningham, Aaron Jennings, Echo Kellum and Carl Tart. Jackson will write and executive produce. Mo Marable will direct and co-executive produce the pilot. Goor will executive produce. Grand Crew is produced by Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group.

Mercedes is a former improviser and sketch comedy actor and an alumna of both iO West and UCB. She also recently wrapped season two of her podcast “Not (Blank) Enough.”
