Mary J. Blige’s music has inspired two of her upcoming movies with Lifetime; “Mary J. Blige’s Real Love” and “Mary J. Blige’s Strength of a Woman.”
The films are set to portray the highs and lows of young Black love with actors Ajiona Alexus, Da’Vinchi, Princess Davis, Austin Anozie, Millan Tesfazgi, Shiraine Haas, Garfield Wilson and Hamza Fouad.
Blige also serves as an executive producer on both original films through her own production banner, Blue Butterfly.
In support of the content, Lifetime has partnered with Take Back The Night Foundation®, an international event and non-profit organization with the mission ending all forms of sexual violence, including sexual assault, sexual abuse, trafficking, stalking, gender harassment, and relationship violence, and to support survivors in their healing journeys.
Camrus Johnson directs Real Love from a script written by Sonja Warfield and Rachel Ingram, and Shari Lynette Carpenter directs Strength of a Woman from a script written by Ingram.
Both films are to debut in June, which coincides with Black Music Month and other Black music features Lifetime has planned during that time, including a Janet Jackson and TLC documentary and Keyshia Cole biopic.
“Mary J. Blige’s Real Love” is set to premiere June 10 at 8 p.m., while “Mary J. Blige’s Strength of a Woman” premieres the following Saturday, June 17 at 8 p.m.
