Lifetime has released the trailer for its highly-anticipated sequel to 2022’s No. 1 non-holiday original movie, Single Black Female. Amber Riley, Raven Goodwin and K. Michelle will all reprise their starring roles.
Per a synopsis, Single Black Female 2: Simone’s Revenge takes place three years after Monica (Goodwin) nearly escapes the murderous clutches of her half-sister, Simone (Riley). Monica sets out to reclaim her life with best friend Bebe (K. Michelle), as she’s now the host of the city’s No. 1 primetime investigative television program in Seattle. She’s has also found a new love interest.
However, the blossoming socialite’s life is turned upside-down once again when Simone sneaks her way back into Monica’s life after suffering from amnesia. Per the description, Simone has been nursed back to health and is building a new life when she comes across her sister on TV, recalling memories of the menacing reunion they had prior.
Single Black Female premiered in February 2022, garnering over 5.1 million views. It was also marked Lifetime’s best movie premiere since Wendy Williams: The Movie debuted in 2021.
The original movie focuses on Monica grappling with the loss of her father and a difficult breakup. As she tries to move forward with her life and juggle a new career as an afternoon talk show host, she hires an assistant who unknowingly is her half-sister, Simone. Hiding the relationship that they truly share, Simone quickly gets close to Monica — so much so that she kills a neighbor so that she can live next door.
As time goes on, Monica begins to see the darkness surrounding Simone and the desire for her life — with help from Bebe. When Monica decides to sever all ties with Simone, she finds herself gripping the strings of her dear life, held by her sister.
Single Black Female 2: Simone’s Revenge is set to premiere on Saturday (Mar. 2) at 8 P.M. ET on Lifetime.
