Wait, we have to share one ring between the three of us???
With This Ring looks like a fun movie about sisterhood and dealing with a pack of men with problems and must maneuver around those obstacles, or just dump the guys entirely for some new blood. But the clock is ticking on their commitment to marry within a year, so soon anything will go!
Should you get married in a year even if it isn’t the right decision, based solely on peer pressure? I hope that’s addressed. Either way, this looks like it will be a fun watch, so I’m looking forward to DVRing it and maybe even getting to it within a reasonable amount of time!
With This Ring stars a whole pack of awesome people: Regina Hall (Scary Movie 1-4), Jill Scott (Why Did I Get Married? 1 and 2), Eve Jeffers Cooper (Barbershop 1 and 2), Brooklyn Sudano, Deion Sanders (football and baseball), Stephen Bishop, Jason George, and Brian White
With This Ring is written and directed by accomplished music video director Nzingha Stewart, this is her first nondocumentary feature.
Regina Hall (“Think Like a Man Too”) and Grammy® Award winners Jill Scott (“Get On Up,” “Steel Magnolias”) and Eve Jeffers Cooper (“Whip It,” “Barbershop”) star as three single friends who vow to get married within a year after attending their best friend’s wedding in the Lifetime Original Movie “With This Ring” (#WithThisRing). The romantic comedy based on the best seller “The Vow” by Denene Millner, Angela Burt-Murray and Mitzi Miller also stars Brooklyn Sudano (“My Wife and Kids”), NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders (“Deion’s Family Playbook”), Stephen Bishop (“Being Mary Jane”), Jason George (“Grey’s Anatomy”) and Brian White (“The Night Before”).
After attending their friend Elise’s (Sudano) wedding to Nate (Bishop) on New Year’s Eve, Trista (Hall), a career-driven talent agent, Viviane (Scott), a successful gossip columnist, and Amaya (Cooper), a struggling actress, make a pact to get married within the year to either a new love or a man waiting in the wings. But the close friends face their own set of challenges – Trista has not gotten over her commitment-phobic ex-boyfriend Damon (White), Viviane is secretly in love with Sean (George), the father of her son, and Amaya is desperate to break up her boyfriend Keith’s (Sanders) unhappy marriage so they can live happily ever after. Each woman starts the year with high hopes and dreams of what will happen over the next 12 months…but will they all make it to the altar?
Written and directed by Nzingha Stewart (“Pretty Little Liars,” “The Fosters”), “With This Ring” is produced by Sony Pictures Television. Executive producers are Tracey E. Edmonds (“Jumping the Broom”) through her Edmonds Entertainment Group, Gabrielle Union (“Top Five,” “Being Mary Jane”) in her first producing role and Sheila Ducksworth (“Why We Laugh: Funny Women,” “Soul Food”).
