After a thrilling first season, Beauty in Black is set for more drama and scandal, with Tyler Perry hinting at a second season on social media. Cast members, including Taylor Polidore Williams, have also expressed confidence in the show's future, and production may already be underway. Here's what we know about the future of this Netflix hit.
The Success of Season 1: Drama and Scandal
Beauty in Black, a dark and twisted drama series from Tyler Perry, follows Kimmie (Taylor Polidore Williams), a struggling exotic dancer who becomes entangled with the powerful Bellaire family. The show has captivated audiences with its intense storylines full of murder, blackmail, and human trafficking, quickly climbing Netflix's top charts when part 1 of the first season debuted in October 2024. Part 2 of season 1, released in March 2025, continued the gripping narrative, leaving fans eager to know what comes next.
The season’s finale definitely sets the stage for more drama, leaving viewers questioning what Kimmie’s next move will be. With its cliffhangers and shocking revelations, the series has clearly built a fanbase that is hungry for more, but is a second season confirmed?
What Tyler Perry and the Cast Are Saying
While Netflix has yet to officially confirm a second season, Tyler Perry himself seems to have hinted that more is on the way. On March 9, Perry took to Instagram to tease fans, writing, “YALL AINT READY FOR SEASON 2 of #BeautyInBlack!! Thanks for making season one HUGE.” This cryptic message suggests that season 2 is in the works, and based on Perry’s track record, fans are likely in for more of the steamy, scandalous drama they love.
Taylor Polidore Williams, who plays Kimmie, also hinted that there’s more story to unfold. “I know what’s going to happen, so I’m trying hard not to say anything,” she said to TVLine, confirming that the first season is just the beginning of Kimmie’s journey. She added that viewers can expect even more thrilling twists in the future.
What Happened at the End of Season 1?
Season 1 of Beauty in Black ends on a high note, with Kimmie finding herself in deeper than ever with the Bellaire family. In part 2, Kimmie’s search for her kidnapped sister Sylvie leads to violent confrontations and, ultimately, revenge. The dramatic conclusion leaves Kimmie in a precarious position, as Horace (Ricco Ross), the patriarch of the Bellaire family, proposes marriage to Kimmie in an effort to secure her place as his business and wealth successor.
The proposal sets the stage for further conflict, as Horace's spurned heirs are unlikely to be thrilled with Kimmie’s rise to power. The power struggle within the Bellaire family is far from over, and fans are left wondering what Kimmie will do next.
Who Will Return for Season 2?
While the cast for season 2 of Beauty in Black hasn’t been officially confirmed yet, Taylor Polidore Williams is expected to return as Kimmie. Perry has been vocal about his admiration for Williams as a performer, having previously worked with her on the 2024 film Divorce in the Black. Fans can also expect to see the Bellaires back in action, including Ricco Ross as Horace and Debbi Morgan as Olivia, the matriarch of the family.
Other key players likely returning include Steven G. Norfleet as Charles, the youngest Bellaire child, and Crystle Stewart as Mallory, Roy’s calculating wife. These characters are central to the ongoing power struggles and drama within the family.
Where to Watch Beauty in Black?
Both parts of season 1 of Beauty in Black are currently available for streaming on Netflix. Fans who haven’t yet caught up on the series can binge-watch the thrilling drama, while those already hooked can eagerly await confirmation of the second season’s release.
With a potential season 2 already in the works and plenty of unresolved storylines, Beauty in Black looks poised to keep fans on the edge of their seats for years to come.
