Hey, Tray!

Actor and comedian Tracy Morgan hit Sheepshead Bay to film his new television show “The Last O.G.” on Tuesday.

The series features Morgan as a Brooklyn-born-and-bred ex-con named Tray who is released from prison after 15 years behind bars and must navigate a newly gentrified County of Kings, including its hipsters, coffee shops, and rainbow food obsession.

Crews took over Knapp Street and Avenue Y to shoot a drive through scene, and our photographer captured Morgan hamming it up for the camera.

But Sheepshead Bay isn’t the only borough nabe that will get a starring role — cameras are rolling across the borough, including in Williamsburg, Prospect Park, and Carroll Gardens.

“The Last O.G.” will debut on Turner Broadcasting System later this year. An exact air date has yet to be announced.
