Genre: Drama | Romance
Starring: Serayah McNeill, Tyler Lepley
Directed by Tyler Perry & DeVon Franklin
In a time when love feels fleeting and loyalty rare, Ruth & Boaz offers a soul-soothing reminder that sometimes the most powerful stories are the quietest ones — rooted in faith, resilience, and unexpected connection.
This heartfelt reimagining of the biblical tale finds new life in the American South, where gospel melodies hum beneath the pines, and healing often begins in silence. Ruth (played with deep grace by Serayah McNeill) is a rising singer who trades the bright lights of Atlanta for the quiet backroads of Tennessee after tragedy strikes her family. Drawn by duty but slowly changed by love, Ruth rediscovers herself in the stillness — in gospel hymns, home-cooked meals, and the comforting rhythm of small-town life.
There, she meets Boaz (Tyler Lepley) — a reserved but kind-hearted man whose past still weighs heavy. What begins as simple gratitude slowly deepens into trust, then something far more sacred. Their journey isn’t about grand gestures or perfect timing, but about showing up — day after day — even when it’s hard. Even when it hurts.
Directed by the powerful duo Tyler Perry and DeVon Franklin, Ruth & Boaz is not just a love story, but a meditation on grace, loyalty, and divine timing. It’s about finding beauty in broken things and hope where there once was none. Anchored by raw performances and a soulful, tender atmosphere, the film offers a rare kind of romantic drama — one where the spirit is as present as the heart.
For audiences seeking something real, redemptive, and rich in soul, Ruth & Boaz may be the quiet triumph of the year.
