Nicque Marina made her debut in The Librarians world at the NYC premiere of The Librarians: The Next Chapter. Posting on Instagram, the actress and influencer wrote, “Ykw I’m all for media that glamorizes READING MORE😀 Props to @marissaehill for hosting a great talkback with the cast, and thank you to the cast and crew for being SO lovely and cool and answering some questions about the production process ✨.” Marina’s enthusiasm was evident as she posed for photos alongside TNT’s creative team and fellow fans of the franchise.
Marissa E. Hill Hosts In-depth Talkback
Marissa E. Hill led a spirited Q&A session with the returning cast, diving into character motivations, design choices and behind-the-scenes moments. Hill’s thoughtful questions prompted insights on everything from sourcing rare books for set dressing to choreographing fight scenes around priceless artifacts. “It felt like a book club crossed with an action film,” Marina commented, highlighting how the conversation balanced scholarly passion with popcorn-ready thrills.
A Long-awaited Return For Fans
After a hiatus since the original series wrapped in 2018, The Librarians resurfaces with its latest chapter on TNT. The two-night premiere event kicks off May 25, immediately following the network’s playoff coverage. Fans can expect the signature blend of mythology, magic and humor that made the original series a cult favorite—this time with fresh storylines and new allies joining the secret society of knowledge guardians.
Premiere Highlights
On the red carpet, Marina opted for a minimalist black ensemble, accessorized with a vintage-inspired necklace nodding to the show’s antique collection theme. In her Instagram image, she’s seen beaming next to Hill and cast members, all illuminated by the marquee’s glow. Throughout the evening, attendees were encouraged to swap book recommendations in lieu of swag, reinforcing the series’ core message: “Don’t forget to read a book😀😏,” as Marina cheekily reminded her followers.
Marina’s Premiere Journey Continues
This was Marina’s first introduction to The Librarians franchise, but she’s no stranger to high-profile premieres. In February, she attended the Captain America: Brave New World premiere as a guest of Marvel Studios. In an earlier Instagram post, Marina reflected on that experience: “As a Black girl and an Air Force veteran like Sam, being among the first to witness the first stand-alone movie of our Black Captain America meant so much to me.” Whether diving into comic book lore or magical library archives, Marina brings genuine curiosity to every event she covers.
Fans who followed Marina’s coverage got a front-row seat to the premiere event’s backstage energy. Cast members shared anecdotes about adapting to on-location shoots in Prague, while producers teased a surprise crossover involving mythological creatures from global folklore. Attendees left with signed bookmarks instead of posters, a nod to the series’ mission of promoting reading.
From the chatter in the Q&A to the book-centric party favors, the evening underscored why The Librarians remains a standout in TNT’s lineup. Marina summed it up best: “This was my introduction to The Librarians universe, and now I have yet another watching journey to start…from the very beginning haha💃🏽.” With its return set to rekindle fan passion, viewers will no doubt be dusting off their favorite tomes—and tuning in when the series airs later this month.
Whether you’re a longtime devotee or new to the secret society, The Librarians: The Next Chapter promises adventure, wit and a reminder that sometimes the greatest treasure of all is the story waiting on the next page.
