Review: Michael B. Jordan is coming back to TV, y’all! The former star of “Friday Night Lights” and “The Wire” — who has since blown up on the big screen via “Black Panther” and “Creed” — is returning to serialized storytelling in “Raising Dion,” a sci-fi family drama based on Dennis Liu’s short film and comic book of the same name. But don’t get too attached — Jordan plays Mark Reese, a husband and father who dies before the series begins. That leaves Nicole (Alisha Wainwright) to take care of their only son Dion (Ja’Siah Young), which becomes even more difficult when she learns he has multiple, constantly changing, superhero-like abilities. With the help of her husband’s best friend Pat (Jason Ritter), Nicole tries to protect her son by keeping his powers secret. Carol Barbee (“UnREAL,” “Falling Skies”) is producing and showrunning, while Jordan and Liu serve as executive producers, as well. Jordan may not be playing the kid, but as star and producer, he’s coming back to TV with great power, indeed.Michael B. Jordan is coming back to TV, y’all!
