Serayah, Tyler Lepley, and the legendary Phylicia Rashad have been tapped to lead the ensemble cast of R&B, a modern-day reimagining of the biblical love story of Ruth and Boaz. Produced by Tyler Perry and Devon Franklin, the film promises to deliver a touching narrative of love, family, and second chances.

In R&B, Serayah stars as a young woman who leaves behind Atlanta’s fast-paced music scene in search of something more meaningful. She finds herself in Tennessee, where she becomes a caregiver to an elderly widow, portrayed by Rashad. While providing care, she not only gains a maternal figure she’s always yearned for but also meets the love of her life, played by Tyler Lepley, in a storyline that mirrors the ancient tale of Ruth and Boaz, reinterpreted for a modern audience.

This project marks a significant collaboration for Perry and Franklin, known for their dedication to producing faith-centered stories that resonate with today’s audiences.
