A couple years ago, back in 2017, Teri Woods brought her breakout novel, True To The Game to the big screen. The film eventually had quite the run on Netflix and has been a highly buzzed about film. While there were early rumors that there had to be a part two, there were no confirmations. Now, not only do we have confirmation, but we also have a release date for the film AND a trailer for True To The Game 2.
Erica Peeples reprises her role of Gena, while Audra Fuller, and Vivica Fox also return. Newcomers include Jeremy Meeks, Rotimi, Tamar Braxton, Niatia ‘Lil Mama’ Kirkland, Faith Evans, Starletta DuPois, and Waka Flocka Flame.
True To The Game 2 is expected to make it to theaters on April 10, 2020.
