Mindy Kaling is back with a new show that promises to be yet another delightful addition to her impressive portfolio. Following her memorable roles as the drama-driven Kelly Kapoor in The Office and the relatable Mindy Lahiri in The Mindy Project, Kaling now steps into the role of a mother in her upcoming series, Champions.
The recently released trailer offers a glimpse into the comedic chaos that unfolds when Vince (Anders Holm), a charismatic yet irresponsible man, is confronted by the unexpected arrival of his teenage son, courtesy of his former high school sweetheart, Priya (Kaling). Fans of The Mindy Project will be thrilled to see Kaling reprise her role, as Dr. Lahiri and Pastor Casey reunite.
The show delves into the challenges of parenting, showcasing Kaling’s character navigating the complexities of co-parenting with her son, who is obsessed with Broadway (one reference to Les Misérables is just the start). Additionally, Mindy Project alum Fortune Feimster makes a guest appearance, promising to add an extra layer of humor to the series.
This release comes at a timely moment in Kaling’s own life, having welcomed a daughter just last December. Since then, she has shared glimpses of her new life as a mother on social media, flaunting adorable outfits for her little one, including a mini-sari that mirrors a costume worn by her beloved character.
In a previous interview with The Today Show, Kaling expressed her aspirations to be the “fun mom,” despite anticipating a more “dorky” reality. She fondly recalls her own mother’s fierce support and hopes to pass on that open-mindedness to her child.
As we prepare to witness Kaling’s on-screen journey into motherhood, we can’t help but look forward to how her character’s romantic history might unfold. If Pastor Casey and Dr. Lahiri find love once more, it will surely be a treat for the fans.
