Diarra Kilpatrick is going into business with BET. The actress, writer, and producer signed an overall deal for its BET Studios division. “As part of the deal, BET+ ordered eight episodes of the straight-to-series project ‘Diarra from Detroit,’” per Deadline.
Currently wrapping up production, the dark comedy “follows a divorcing schoolteacher with an acerbic sense of humor who refuses to believe she’s been ghosted by her rebound Tinder date. Her search for the missing man pulls her into a decades-old mystery involving the Detroit underworld.”
“Diarra from Detroit” is scheduled to premiere later this year.
