โSometimes healing doesnโt come in a flashโit grows, steady and quiet.โ
Set in the gentle rhythms of rural Tennessee, Ruth & Boaz offers a modern retelling of one of the Bibleโs most enduring love stories. Ruth (Serayah McNeill), once a rising R&B sensation in Atlanta, returns home after a personal tragedy shakes the foundation of her world. With fame behind her and grief pressing in, she finds herself rebuilding not just her lifeโbut her identity.

Struggling to stay grounded, Ruth accepts a humble job at a small-town church, where the hymns speak to something buried deep within her. It’s there she meets Boaz (Tyler Lepley), a soft-spoken mechanic with his own quiet burdens. His family garage is falling apart, and so is heโuntil a connection begins to spark between two hearts scarred by loss but open to something more.

Their romance unfolds slowly, with kindness instead of fireworks, with shared silences instead of grand gestures. Through music, community, and faith, Ruth & Boaz explores how love grows not in perfection, but in patienceโin everyday moments that build something lasting.

Directed by Tyler Perry and DeVon Franklin, the film combines soulful storytelling with a gospel-blues soundtrack that gives each scene emotional depth. The setting is as much a character as the leadsโfields, churches, and dirt roads frame this tale of hope rising from heartbreak.

๐พ Ruth & Boaz premieres September 26, 2025, only on Netflix.
Because sometimes, the right person doesnโt save youโthey stand beside you while you save yourself.
