Taraji P. Henson will be joining the growing list of actors turned talk show hosts.

The 50-year-old Oscar-nominated actress appeared on the “Today Show” to discuss her new project, which is said to be called “Peace of Mind with Taraji.”

“I’ve long been a mental health advocate for the Black community and created the Boris Lawrence Henson Foundation in 2018 that has provided resources to thousands of people who are struggling,” Henson said.

The “Baby Boy” actress has discussed her struggles with mental health, and says she hopes to use the talk show to help others who may be dealing with similar issues.

“I’m looking forward to bringing this new talk series to Facebook Watch, where I can continue to create a conversation around an issue that is near and dear to my heart,” she said.

The new show does not have a release date as of yet.

Henson will join other stars such as Jada Pinkett-Smith, Steve Harvey and Gloria Estefan. All of whom have garnered new exposure through the Facebook Watch platform.
