Tyler Perry (above) is bringing a new drama, Beauty in Black, to Netflix as a part of his first look deal with the streaming service. The creator partnered with Netflix in 2023 to release several films on the service. The first of those films – Mea Culpa, starring Kelly Rowland – will be released on Friday.

Netflix revealed the following about the plot of Beauty in Black:

Beauty in Black follows two women leading very different lives. While Kimmie is struggling to make a living after her mother kicked her out and Mallory is running a successful business, they find themselves entangled in each other’s lives.

Sixteen hour-long episodes are being produced for season one of the series.

The premiere date and additional details for the new drama will be announced later.
