When asked about his early stardom on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Bagley can’t deny he was lucky. “It was a huge blessing,” he said. “Fresh Prince was, and still is, one of my favorite shows as a child, even way before I was on it. I remember when it used to come on Monday nights and I would watch it with my babysitter when I was a little tyke so, to be on it was surreal, to say the least.”

He reunited with some of his Little Rascals cast in 2014 for the 20^th anniversary of the film. Some people say that his role as Buckwheat may have prevented his career from growing, but he disagreed. “I feel like it’s nothing more than a help,” Bagley said. “I was grateful to be a part of it.”

He did an internship at Will and Jada Smith’s film production company known as Overbrook Entertainment.

His future plans include joining another comedy ensemble and to continue learning about producing. “That is always a lot of fun,” he said. “And the environment on set is way more laid back and lighthearted, which always makes me feel extremely comfortable.” He has enjoyed learning more about acting on the other side of the camera and hopes to continue to perfect his art. He isn’t opposed to acting again, but has been focusing on other ventures since his last film role.
