‘Beyond The Gates’ Unveils First Photos Of Keith D. Robinson As Ted

We’re getting a look at Keith D. Robinson as Dr. Ted Richardson in Beyond the Gates, with some of the first images released by CBS.

As we recently exclusively reported, Robinson has joined the cast as a series regular, taking over the role previously played by Maurice Johnson, who last appeared in the daytime soap Wednesday, May 14. A reason for Johnson’s departure was not revealed, but recastings are not uncommon in daytime soaps.

Robinson first appears in the May 15 episode. You can see the images above and below.

Richardson is a brilliant plastic surgeon, married to Dr. Nicole Richardson (Daphnee Duplaix).

Beyond the Gates is set in a leafy Maryland suburb just outside of Washington, DC, in one the most affluent African American counties in the United States; a posh gated community with winding tree-lined streets and luxurious mansions to call home. At the center of this community are the Duprees, a powerful and prestigious multi-generational family that is the very definition of Black royalty. But behind these pristine walls and lush, manicured gardens are juicy secrets and scandals waiting to be uncovered. And those who live outside these gates are watching closely. These are the places where our characters live, love, work and play. Those who have “made it” and those who haven’t are all trying to navigate life … and some with more grace than others. 

The series was just renewed for a second season earlier this week.

The drama also stars Tamara Tunie, Clifton Davis, Karla Mosley, Alex Alegria, Lauren Buglioli, Brandon Claybon, Timon Kyle Durrett, Sean Freeman, Ben Gavin, Marquita Goings, Jibre Hordges, Jen Jacob, Trisha Mann-Grant, Mike Manning, RhonniRose Mantilla, Ambyr Michelle, Colby Muhammad and Arielle Prepetit.

Beyond the Gates is a CBS Studios/NAACP Venture, led by Sheila Ducksworth, in partnership with P&G Studios, a division of Procter & Gamble. The series is created and executive produced by Val Jean. Additional executive producers are Ducksworth, Julie Carruthers, Tracey Thompson, Leon W. Russell, Derrick Johnson, Kimberly Doebereiner and Anna Saalfeld.

The series is distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.
