About Donald Glover's ‘Swarm’ Series Premiere

“Swarm” tells the story of Dre, a young woman obsessed with a fictional pop star (who is essentially a stand-in for Beyoncé) with a fanbase known as “The Swarm.” The show is a dive into Dre’s life, her fandom, and how it takes her to dark, unexpected places.

The show is “Post-truth ‘Piano Teacher’ combined with ‘The King of Comedy,’” according to creator Donald Glover. Tony Soprano and Don Draper served as models for Glover and co-creator Janinie Nabers as they set out to write an anti-hero story.

Starring Dominique Fishback, the series will also feature guest stars Chlöe Bailey as Marissa, Dre’s sister, and Damson Idris as her boyfriend Khalid. Additional guest stars include Rickey Thompson, Paris Jackson, Rory Culkin, Kiersey Clemons, and Byron Bowers.
