Beauty in Black is a 16-episode series that will debut on Netflix in two parts. Part one of the series premieres on Thursday, October 24, 2024 at 4:00 am EST. Part two will premiere at a later date. Netflix has not released the date for the premiere of the second part of the series.

Each episode is expected to run for about an hour. Since the show is a Netflix original, it can be watched exclusively on Netflix.

What is the series all about?

Beauty in Black is part of Perry’s creative partnership with Netflix where he will be writing, directing, and producing films and series under a multi-year first-look deal, including Mea Culpa, which premiered in February.

Beauty in Black follows the story of two women from very different walks of life, whose worlds collide. Actor Taylor Polidore Williams plays Kimmie, who struggles to earn a living after her mother kicks her out. Meanwhile, actor Crystle Stewart portrays Mallory who is a successful businesswoman.

The chances of them running into each other are slim, yet they find themselves entangled in each other’s lives.

Set in Atlanta, the series follows how a wealthy Black family involved in hair care business and an exotic dancer, who is caught up in the underbelly of a famed Magic City strip club, become involved with each other.

Tyler Perry found inspiration for the series from “dual strip clubs around” Atlanta in the ’90s and he is familiar with families of real-life hair care dynasties. He told Netflix's Tudum that the plot of Beauty in Black is purely fictional and designed to entertain the audience.
