In an exciting development for fans, the critically acclaimed drama series Beauty in Black, created by Tyler Perry, has officially been renewed for a second season. The announcement came on Wednesday, just six days after the release of the second half of its inaugural season.
This renewal follows the show’s impressive performance, as it re-entered Netflix‘s global top 10 list for the week of March 3-9. Its popularity surged after the first part debuted in October 2024 and maintained a solid presence on the list for four consecutive weeks.
