Tyler Perry and DeVon Franklin have just unveiled the first clip of their highly anticipated Netflix film, Ruth & Boaz (R&B) — and it’s already stirring excitement across social media. Set to premiere globally on September 26, the movie promises a soulful, Southern spin on one of the Bible’s most enduring love stories.
In this modern-day reimagining, Ruth & Boaz follows the journey of a young woman, played by Serayah McNeill, who walks away from the glitter and chaos of Atlanta’s booming music scene to take care of a grieving widow in a quiet Tennessee town. What begins as a selfless act of compassion slowly becomes a life-altering experience filled with healing, rediscovery, and the gentle unfolding of unexpected love.
Opposite McNeill is Tyler Lepley, who steps into the role of the brooding but kind-hearted Boaz — a man grounded in faith and scarred by his own losses. Together, the two lead a cast that blends spiritual depth with heartfelt storytelling, creating what producers call “a love letter to redemption, community, and grace.”
With Perry’s signature emotional layers and Franklin’s spiritual insight, Ruth & Boaz is shaping up to be more than just a film — it’s a modern parable about second chances and divine timing, wrapped in Southern charm and soul-stirring performances.
Mark your calendars. This fall, love and faith meet on screen in a powerful new way.
