Malia Obama enjoyed her time on the set of “Swarm.” To commemorate Flashback Friday, we’re sharing a joyful image of Malia alongside two of the TV show’s stars: Dominique Fishback and Chloe Bailey. The Obama family enjoys dinner with Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson in GreeceMalia and Sasha Obama enjoy summer in Greece with their parentsA photo shared by the comedian Loni Love shows Malia, Chloe and Dominique smiling brightly for the camera. While Chloe and Dominique play key parts in the series, Malia was one of its writers, writing one episode of the show titled “Girl Bye.” The photo shows them all on set and having a good time.
Dominique Fishback didn’t mean to scare you. Despite playing a murderer on Prime Video’s Swarm, Fishback swears her intentions were pure. For her, the chance to star as Dre — an infatuated fan of an R&B superstar named Ni’Jah, who feels compelled to kill anyone with a negative opinion of the artist — was kismet. Created by Donald Glover and Janine Nabers, the series sparked critical discourse online regarding the representation of Black female characters and the dark side of online fandoms. Here, Fishback gets candid about her career path, her determination to uphold self-belief and how she approached playing a stone-cold killer.
Angelique Jackson Dominique Fishback is sitting backstage waiting to discuss her latest role, starring in Amazon Prime Video’s “Swarm,” when her ears perk up at a familiar sound: an engine revving. On the other side of a partition, an audience watches a particularly tense scene from the show’s fourth episode, titled “Running Scared,” when Fishback’s Dre — a murderous super fan of Ni’jah, a Beyoncé-esque pop star — faces down a group of women who stand between her and attending the singer’s concert. Fishback playfully re-enacts the scene, gripping an imaginary steering wheel and pressing her high-heeled foot down onto a pretend gas pedal that sends her speeding ahead and crashing into Dre’s latest victims. She pulls a funny face and hams it up for a rep’s cellphone camera, unknowingly demonstrating the type of darkly comedic energy that makes “Swarm” so buzzworthy.

William Earl This article contains spoilers for “Swarm.” The first image of the debut episode of the serial killer series “Swarm” is a spin on classic Hollywood disclaimer language: “Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is intentional.” It’s a provocative start to the kaleidoscopic pop culture satire, created by Janine Nabers and Donald Glover and starring Dominique Fishback as Dre, a woman so obsessed with pop singer Ni’Jah that she’d kill to defend her honor. Given the bloodshed and not-so-subtle parallels between Ni’Jah and the career and passionate fanbase of Beyoncé, it’s easy to believe there could have been a real-life cross-country serial killer murdering those who dare take Queen Bey’s name in vain. But what’s the reality behind the purported true story of “Swarm”?

Selome Hailu SPOILER ALERT: This interview contains spoilers for all episodes of “Swarm” on Amazon Prime Video. Rumors of a Donald Glover project about a “Beyoncé-like figure” have been swirling in Hollywood for at least two years. And while no one involved will say Knowles’ name — though Glover has called out the Beyhive and co-creator and showrunner Janine Nabers has spoken about “a certain pop star from Houston” — that series is finally here. “Swarm” stars Dominique Fishback as Dre, an emotionally stunted superfan of a singer named Ni’Jah (Nirine S. Brown), who is a bit unhealthily obsessed with her own sister, Marissa (Chloe Bailey). When a fight between the sisters separates them for a night, Dre goes out to celebrate Ni’Jah’s surprise album drop (clearly inspired by “Lemonade,” in which Beyoncé sings about being cheated on) while Marissa discovers that she’s being cheated on by her boyfriend, Khalid (Damson Idris). Unable to reach Dre for support, she dies by suicide.
Debuting to critical acclaim and lots of theories about its parallels to Beyonce and the Beyhive, is a wildly captivating comedy-horror series about a young girl whose obsession with a pop star and deep love for her sister sends her down a violent path.«It's also just really the story of a woman, who by any means necessary, is trying to get to the one thing that she understands in her life and the one thing that completes her,» showrunner Janine Nabers said. Co-created by Donald Glover and Nabers, the seven-part story stars Dominique Fishback as the central antihero, Andrea «Dre» Green, and Chloe Bailey as her sister, Marissa, with the likes of Billie Eilish, Damson Idris, Kiersey Clemons and Paris Jackson appearing as some of the ill-fated characters who come across with Dre. «When I was younger, I watched with Charlize Theron… And I watched Heath Ledger do the Joker and you see all of these people get to really tap into different characters,» Fishback said of wanting to take on this role. «I was like, 'Man, I want to get the opportunity to really just stretch myself as an actor and explore the human psyche in ways that I would never do.' …And, I feel like I got that freedom to do so at Dre's expense.
