The Real Housewives of Atlanta star and entrepreneur is joining the cast of ‘The Chi’ for a multi-episode arc in season three.

Season three cast includes Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine (Queen of Katwe), Jacob Latimore (Sleight), Alex Hibbert (Moonlight), Yolonda Ross (Treme), Shamon Brown Jr., Michael Epps and Birgundi Baker.
Waithe, who won an Emmy for Netflix’s Master of None, executive produces the series alongside Oscar and Emmy winner Common, Aaron Kaplan, Rick Famuyiwa, Derek Dudley and Shelby Stone of Freedom Road Productions, Jet Wilkinson and showrunner Justin Hillian.
A founding member of multi-platinum R&B group Xscape, Burruss currently stars on the Bravo hit series, The Real Housewives of Atlanta in her eleventh season.
