Will Ryder Launches New Studio Banner 'Black Is Beautiful Television'

HOLLYWOOD — Will Ryder’s new studio banner Black Is Beautiful Television will begin production this spring, with features starring Black actresses in all of the main roles.

Black Is Beautiful Television, a rep explained, will be “a new company featuring beautiful Black women.”

Ryder’s idea is to create “a first-class platform for today’s most beautiful African American actresses and models in a multitude of delivery platforms, including high-quality feature movies for television broadcast, clips, interviews and entertaining behind-the-scenes expose-style pieces that feature Black female actresses living the Black experience,” the rep added. “The stories will be smart, intelligent and creative, which is exactly what all actresses want.”

Ryder described his vision for the project.

“It’s no secret that I adore beautiful black women, so after a lot of planning, I wanted to create a new company that will deliver high-quality movies and scenarios and a venture that will become a truly beautiful creative outlet for Black women,” he said. “I’ve worked with some of the most talented ebony actresses and the common complaint was that there weren’t enough high-quality opportunities for many girls of color — well, I want to help give them a place.”

“We will embrace Blackness to our collective best ability because Black is beautiful,” Ryder concluded.
