Beauty in Black Season 2: Release date, cast updates and what to expect next
Tyler Perry's Beauty in Black hooked fans with its juicy drama, shocking twists, and unforgettable characters in Season 1. Now, everyone's buzzing about Season 2, dying to know what's next for Kimmie, the Bellarie family, and all the chaos they bring. If you're as obsessed as we are, here's the latest on Beauty in Black Season 2, including when it drops, who's back, and what wild drama to expect. When Is Beauty in Black Season 2 Coming Out?
Good news, fans! Netflix has locked in September 11, 2025, for the premiere of Beauty in Black Season 2. Like the first season, it'll roll out in two parts, with the first batch of episodes—likely eight—hitting on that date. The second part should follow a few months later, possibly in early 2026. Tyler Perry's team wrapped filming earlier this year, so the wait won't be too brutal. Perry himself dropped hints on social media, saying the new season is 'coming sooner than you think,' and fans are already counting down the days. Cast Updates: Who's Returning for Season 2?
The heart of Beauty in Black is its stellar cast, and most of the fan favorites are expected to return. Taylor Polidore Williams is back as Kimmie, the former exotic dancer who shook things up by marrying Horace Bellarie (played by Ricco Ross) in the Season 1 finale. Their marriage is sure to stir up trouble, especially with Horace's health on shaky ground—will he even make it through the season?
Here's who else we expect to see: Crystle Stewart as Mallory Bellarie, the glamorous but ruthless beauty mogul fighting to keep her family's empire intact.
Debbi Morgan as Olivia Bellarie, the sharp-tongued matriarch who's always scheming to stay on top.
Amber Reign Smith as Rain, Kimmie's ride-or-die bestie who's been through it all.
Julian Horton as Roy Bellarie, caught up in the family's power games.
Steven G. Norfleet as Charles Bellarie, another key player in the Bellarie drama.
Richard Lawson as Norman Bellarie, Horace's brother, adding more tension to the mix.
No word yet on new faces, but knowing Tyler Perry, he's probably got some surprise characters up his sleeve to keep us guessing. What to Expect in Season 2
The Season 1 finale left audiences reeling with Kimmie's marriage to Horace, a strategic move to secure his fortune and outmaneuver his scheming family. Season 2 will dive deeper into Kimmie's transformation from underdog to a powerful force within the Bellarie empire. Expect intense power struggles as Mallory, Olivia, and others resist Kimmie's newfound control.
The official synopsis hints at darker themes: Kimmie, once a sex worker under the Bellaries' employ, becomes 'an unstoppable force of vengeance' on a mission to rescue her kidnapped sister. This suggests a focus on Kimmie's quest for justice, alongside the unraveling of the Bellarie family's secrets, including their ties to an underground trafficking ring.
Key storylines to watch: Kimmie's Rise to Power : How will Kimmie handle her new role as the Bellarie family's matriarch? Her marriage to Horace puts her at odds with his children and in-laws, setting the stage for explosive confrontations.
Horace's Fate : With Horace on his deathbed in Season 1, will he survive to guide Kimmie, or will his passing shift the power dynamics further?
Family Betrayals : The Bellarie family is no stranger to backstabbing. Olivia's blackmail schemes and Mallory's ambitions will likely fuel more drama.
Rain's Journey: After a tumultuous Season 1, Rain's health and loyalty to Kimmie will be tested. Will she remain a steady ally?
Tyler Perry has promised that Season 2 will be a 'wild ride,' with unexpected turns that no one will see coming. Fans can expect more of the soapy drama that made Season 1 a hit.

'Emily in Paris' actor says he was devastated after being 'fired' from show: 'A tragedy'
Rupert Everett is saying au revoir to "Emily in Paris," but not by choice.

Everett indicated his departure from the show was due to script changes, and Vanity Fair cited a source who said his character's story reached its conclusion. "Show business is always very difficult, from the beginning to the end," he told the outlet. "When they write the screenplay, they think they want you – but then things change, and they lose your character. I don't know why." Still, Everett said he was upset about not being brought back. "For me, it was a tragedy. I was in bed for two weeks because I couldn't get over it," he said. Lily Collins stars in "Emily in Paris" as Emily Cooper, an American who moves to France for work.

Lynyrd Skynyrd Soars Thanks To ‘Happy Gilmore 2'
More than two decades after it first hit theaters, Happy Gilmore is back, only the second installment in what has now become a franchise isn't on the big screen. Happy Gilmore 2 arrived on Netflix on July 25. The film quickly became a top 10 success on the platform, and the movie is so popular that even a few music syncs have helped a handful of classic rock acts surge on streaming sites. Lynyrd Skynyrd Scores a Streaming Surge Of all the musical acts featured in Happy Gilmore 2, the one that stands out thanks to an impressive streaming boost is Lynyrd Skynyrd. The band's 1973 cut 'Tuesday's Gone' returns in the new film, which some fans of the original may have expected, as it was featured in Happy Gilmore. The rock group's ballad jumped 44% in terms of total on-demand streams in the United States during the movie's opening weekend, according to Billboard. The track soared from 525,000 streams to 756,000 between July 25 and 28, according to numbers shared with the music magazine by Luminate. Lynyrd Skynyrd's Deep Cut Finds a New Audience Though it never charted upon its initial release, 'Tuesday's Gone' has become a fan favorite among those who love Lynyrd Skynyrd. Originally featured on the band's debut album Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd, the song stands apart from the outfit's better-known, uptempo tracks like 'Sweet Home Alabama' and 'What's Your Name?' Though the tune doesn't appear on any Billboard lists this frame, a growth of more than 40% on streaming outlets is impressive for a decades-old cut. Foreigner and Tom Petty Also Gain Ground Lynyrd Skynyrd might be leading the way, but the rockers aren't the only ones benefiting thanks to being included in Happy Gilmore 2. The Replacements' track 'Swingin' Party' experienced the biggest percentage gain, more than doubling its plays from 15,000 to 38,000 streams. Foreigner's 'Juke Box Hero' enjoyed an 18% bump in streaming during the same window, while Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers' 'The Waiting' rose by 15%.
