Tyler Perry’s first Netflix show, Beauty in Black, is returning for its second season after its breakout success. Keep reading to find out the exact time Beauty in Black Season 2, Part 1 premieres, as well as more details about the exciting two-part release.
Beauty in Black follows Kimmie (Taylor Polidore Williams), a stripper who becomes entangled with the affluent Bellaire family, owners of a cosmetics empire. The first season concludes with patriarch Horace Bellaire marrying Kimmie from his hospital bed, leaving her his inheritance and shocking his spoiled heirs. In Season 2, Kimmie steps into her new role as head of the Beauty in Black cosmetics brand.
“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 Bellarie family,” Creator Tyler Perry teased to Netflix’s Tudum. “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.”
Kimmie’s new position also doesn’t sit well with Horace’s heirs, Roy (Julian Horton) and Charles (Steven G. Norfleet), and the rest of the family, including daughter-in-law Mallory (Crystle Stewart), his ex-wife Olivia (Debbi Morgan) and brother Norman (Richard Lawson). The family rushed to stop the marriage in the Season 1 finale, but it was too late.
“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 and is now the one calling the shots after inheriting sole ownership of the family business,” the logline for Season 2 reads.
Now that Kimmie’s officially a Bellarie, what will she do with her new power? Here’s what you need to know about the release time for Part 1 and how to watch new episodes.
