Beauty in Black – Season 2: What to Expect
Netflix has officially confirmed that Tyler Perry’s Beauty in Black is returning for Season 2, arriving in two parts this time around. The drama continues its explosive storyline with a highly anticipated release date of September 11, 2025.
Season 1—a gripping 16-episode saga in two parts—introduced viewers to Kimmie (Taylor Polidore Williams), a scrappy exotic dancer who becomes entangled in the Bellaire family’s cosmetics empire and its dark underbelly (Wikipedia, People.com, EW.com).
Her ascent was sealed when she accepted a ring from the dying patriarch Horace, cementing her role within the Belleaires’ elite but dangerous domain. Now, Season 2 promises higher stakes and deeper intrigue.

Perry teases that the drama will be “mind-blowing,” with fans urged to “trust no one”—especially in the power plays that await Kimmie as she navigates her new status. Returning cast members are expected to include Williams and Crystle Stewart (Mallory), alongside the entire Bellaire family—Debbi Morgan, Richard Lawson, Steven G. Norfleet, and more.
While Season 1 earned massive popularity—partly topping Netflix’s charts in 28 countries and dominating Top 10 lists—critical response was more polarized. Reviews noted that the show’s sensational content, explicit scenes, and bold narrative overshadowed character depth, with some reviewers calling it “a lurid mess”.
With all this in mind, viewers can expect Season 2 to dial up the suspense, betrayals, and dramatic power shifts. Tyler Perry promises the ride isn’t over—Kimmie’s emergence as the family's new power center is only just beginning.
