After scoring killer ratings with ‘Envy’ and ‘Lust,’ the first two installments of Lifetime’s T.D. Jakes-produced films from the ‘Seven Deadly Sins’ franchise, the women’s network is looking to repeat the feat by unveiling first looks at the movies’ follow-ups: ‘Wrath’ and ‘Greed.’
Based on the book series authored by Victoria Christopher Murray, ‘Wrath’ follows a single lawyer (portrayed by Williams) trying to navigate a chaotic love affair with another lawyer (portrayed by Antonio Cupo) who is so jealous and wrathful that his obsession with her leads to violence and threats. Tina Knowles-Lawson plays Williams’ mother in the film.
Look inside to see the first official promo clip for ‘Wrath’:
‘Greed: A Seven Deadly Sins Story,’ stars Monique Coleman, Nathan Witte, Lisa Raye McCoy, Eric Benét, and others. See the official plot description below:
“Greed threatens to destroy everything when Zuri [Coleman]meets handsome benefactor and entrepreneur Godfrey Anderson [Benét] and his fabulously wealthy aunt Miss Viv [McCoy]. They have everything Zuri thinks she wants. As Godfrey romances her, she compromises the values and morals that should guide her in an effort to be part of the moneyed world she so desperately wants to be part of.”
Both directed by Troy Scott, the films are slated to air on Lifetime on back-to-back Saturdays – starting with ‘Wrath‘ on April 16 and ‘Greed‘ on April 23.
