FIRST LOOKS/TRAILERS

Paramount+ has released the first look at “Diarra From Detroit” Season 2, which will premiere with two episodes globally starting July 29.

Created by and starring Diarra Kilpatrick, the story picks up with Diarra Brickland (Kilpatrick) trying to have a hot girl summer without the stress of another unserious mystery.

“What starts as a seemingly harmless furniture recovery mission quickly spirals into a triple homicide investigation, a citywide treasure hunt and another trip deep into Detroit’s criminal underbelly,” an official synopsis teases. “As Diarra attempts to sort out her messy relationship status, she instead finds herself going undercover with a secret society, starring in a Tubi movie, chasing urban legends, dodging gang warfare, and uncovering secrets buried beneath the city itself. Because of course she does.”

Series stars include Kilpatrick, DomiNque Perry, Bryan Terrell Clark and Jon Chaffin, with Shannon Wallace, Phylicia Rashad and Harry Lennix returning. Series executive producers include Kilpatrick, Kenya Barris and Miles Orion Feldsott. BET Studios and Khalabo Ink Society produce.
