Megan Thee Stallion is returning to television with a guest appearance on NBC’s comedy The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins. 

The network confirmed that the three-time Grammy-winning rapper will portray Denise, a recently divorced mother who develops a flirtatious connection with Daniel Radcliffe’s character, Arthur Tobin.

A newly released trailer offers a glimpse of their on-screen dynamic. In one scene, Arthur — an award-winning filmmaker within the show’s universe — sits in a park while Denise watches him from afar, dressed in what appears to be a postal service uniform. The moment escalates when the two lock eyes, hinting at a comedic yet intriguing storyline. A first-look image also shows Stallion seated beside the Harry Potter alum, further teasing their chemistry.

The series stars Tracy Morgan as Reggie Dinkins, a disgraced former NFL player attempting to rebuild his public image. His journey leads him to collaborate with Arthur on a documentary about his life. Created by 30 Rock veterans Tina Fey and Robert Carlock, the sitcom premiered Jan. 18 and attracted approximately 6.1 million viewers across NBC and Peacock.

Carlock previously praised Radcliffe for embracing unexpected roles in his post-Harry Potter career, while Morgan highlighted the natural chemistry between the two actors as a key strength of the show.

Stallion is no stranger to acting, having appeared in films such as Dicks: The Musical and Mean Girls, along with television projects including She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and Big Mouth. Her latest role adds to a growing entertainment résumé beyond music.

The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins airs Feb. 23 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC with a two-episode rollout, followed by weekly installments beginning March 2.
