Lifetime Taps Stars for New Movies & Micro-Dramas

Lifetime has announced new talent partnerships and a significant expansion into micro-dramas. Queen Latifah and Taraji P. Henson are joining the network's roster of creative partners, both signing on to executive produce new original films through their respective production companies. These deals signal a continued commitment to powerful, female-driven storytelling.

The network is also venturing into vertical storytelling with 'Tides of Temptation.' This premium microdrama serves as a digital offshoot for an upcoming 'Love of a Lifetime' movie, offering a new format for audiences. The project aims to bring emotional depth to a format designed for contemporary viewing.

Furthermore, Lifetime has greenlit three new original movies for its highly successful 'Love of a Lifetime' banner, including 'Love, Again,' 'When I Said I Do,' and 'Terry McMillan Presents: Paradise with You.' A fourth film, 'Angel in the Rubble,' based on a 9/11 survivor's story and executive produced by Robin Roberts, has also been announced.
