With an all-star cast, including Angela Bassett, Lizzy Caplan, and Jesse Plemons, “Zero Day” is a fast-paced political thriller that feels eerily relevant in today’s digital age. If you love shows like “House of Cards” or “The Night Agent,” this one’s a must-watch.
BET+ brings an electrifying true-crime biopic with Fighting to Be Me: The Dwen Curry Story, chronicling the rise and fall of celebrity stylist Dwen Curry. Known for working with icons like LisaRaye McCoy, YoYo, Missy Elliott, and Mariah Carey, Dwen built a glamorous empire—but behind the scenes, she was living a double life.
Forced to leave Detroit for Oakland in the early ’90s, Dwen found success as a salon owner and fashion force, but her hunger for wealth and security led her to a secret world of crime. As the mastermind of an underground criminal syndicate known as The Gay Gangsters, she orchestrated a multimillion-dollar fraud operation while navigating love, family, and her journey to embracing her transgender identity.
Definitely add this one to your watch list.
