Toni Braxton is heading into a fresh artistic chapter. The iconic 1990s R&B star will film a project under her multi-picture contract with Lifetime. Her 2000 chart-topping song, “He Wasn’t Man Enough,” inspired this film. It will begin a series of movies that use her hit songs as narration.
In the film, Braxton portrays Mel Montgomery, a successful author. Her relationships take an appalling turn when her boyfriend Richard, played by Thomas Cadrot, suddenly abandons her. The drama escalates, because Mel then observes that Richard has proposed to her old college friend Monica, portrayed by Essence Atkins. Additionally, Yvette Nicole Brown joins the cast, adding a glamorous presence.
“He Wasn’t Man Enough” will premiere on November 22 at 8/7c on Lifetime’s “Love of a Lifetime” programming segment. It reached the start of a grand vision, combining Braxton’s permanent music with engrossing new storytelling for television.
The new film in the series “Breathe Again” – “shifts the spotlight to three women who fail to find love on a reality dating show.” After leaving Los Angeles for a new beginning in Seattle, trios such as Characters were also portrayed by Atkins, and “A Different World” star Cree Summer – seeking strength in sisterhood while discovering personal involvements.
With this franchise, Braxton is incorporating her R&B legacy with film, adapting popular tracks into chronicles that absorb the entanglement of love, heartbreak, and durability.
