Tyler Perry’s latest legal drama Duplicity premiered on Prime Video on 20 March 2025, delivering a powerful narrative that explores police brutality, betrayal and injustice.

Led by Kat Graham as attorney Marley Wells, the film follows her quest to defend best friend Fela Blackburn, played by Meagan Tandy, whose husband Rodney played by Joshua Adeyeye is shot under suspicious circumstances by police.

As Marley digs deeper, she discovers a web of secrets and deceit that not only tests her legal skills but challenges her ethics and emotional strength. Perry stated, “Once you think you know what’s going on, you got no clue,” a reflection of the film’s plot twists and tension.

The ensemble cast also includes RonReaco Lee as Detective Harris, Tyler Lepley as Marley's boyfriend Tony Wells, and Nick Barrotta as Sam, a news producer.

Perry’s film highlights systemic failures and community struggles. “I’m tired of seeing people in this industry, especially Black people mistreated, misused, not paid,” Perry said recently, underlining the personal activism that informs his work.

Duplicity is now available to stream on Prime Video.
