BET Plus
BET Plus, scheduled for release in Fall 2019, is a streaming service that already flexes a partnership with renowned producers Tyler Perry, Will Packer, and Tracy Oliver to create new content for the upcoming platform. However, the service will host old shows like Martin and all of Tyler Perry’s movies. Devin Griffin, general manager of BET Plus, told Deadline “We’re focused on super-serving lovers of black stories by working with top talent, and supporting fresh new voices, on both sides of the camera.” The service is set to cost $9.99 per month and will be released on September 19th, 2019.
