Netflix has renewed Tyler Perry’s Beauty in Black for a second season following the release of Season 1 Part 2 last week. Season 2 will also be released in two parts.
The series follows two women leading very different lives. While Kimmie (Taylor Polidore Williams) is struggling to make a living after her mother kicked her out, Mallory (Crystle Stewart) is running a successful business. They are entangled in each other’s lives.
In Part 2, the ruthless, backstabbing family behind a beauty brand — and an underground trafficking ring — will face a reckoning. Kimmie, the once-unassuming sex worker in their employ, becomes an unstoppable force of vengeance on a mission to rescue her kidnapped sister.
The series also stars Amber Reign Smith, Ricco Ross, Debbi Morgan, Richard Lawson, Steven G. Norfleet, Julian Horton, Terrell Carter, Shannon Wallace, Bryan Tanaka, Joy Rovaris, Xavier Smalls, Charles Malik Whitfield, Tamera “Tee” Kissen, Ursula O. Robinson, Ashley Versher, George Middlebrook and Ts Madison
“We left fans on the edge of their seats at the end of Season 1, and we’re thrilled to continue Kimmie’s journey as she steps into her power as the newest member of the Bellaire family,” shared writer/ director/ producer Perry. “Kimmie exemplifies the spirit of never underestimating the underdog, and I can’t wait for fans to continue to see her story unfold. If you thought Season 1 was a wild ride, you’re not ready for Season 2.”
Tyler Perry’s Beauty in Black Part 1 spent four weeks ranked in the Top 10 and in its second week was #1 across 28 countries, according to the streamer.
In addition to Perry, Angi Bones and Tony Strickland produce for Tyler Perry Studios.
