Out actress Raven-Symone announced
Thursday that she's leaving The View to star in an upcoming
spinoff of That's so Raven.
In That's so Raven, which ran
for four seasons on the Disney Channel, Raven-Symone played Raven
Baxter, a teenager who had psychic powers.
“I'm excited and sad, but mostly
excited,” Raven-Symone
told her The
View
co-hosts. “I have an announcement to make – no, I'm not
pregnant.”
“I have a really big surprise, you
guys, and I'm very excited. I don't know if you've ever seen the
show, but I used to do this show called That's so Raven. And
we're doing a That's so Raven 2. There's no title yet,” she
said.
Raven-Symone explained that she would
reprise her role of Raven Baxter who is now a single mother of two
children, one of whom has psychic visions.
Raven-Symone
publicly came out lesbian in 2013.
