… Movie To Premiere On September 23rd ON BET
International
BET hit drama “Being Mary Jane”, starring award-winning actress Gabrielle Union, is to premiere exclusively on BET International in Africa from September 2013.
Celebrating the values of family, strength and
independence, “Being Mary Jane” chronicles the complex life of Mary Jane Paul,
a fiercely independent and successfully modern African American woman
encountering the highs and lows of balancing life, love, family and a
demanding career.
Mary Jane Paul seemingly has it all as a beautiful
and successful TV news anchor. In reality, she’s a self-sufficient powerhouse
with a lacklustre love life who remains devoted to a family that doesn’t share
her motivation. How far is she willing to go to find the puzzle pieces that she
- and society - insist are missing from her life? Intense drama and
unforgettable moments unfold as Mary Jane juggles her life, her relationships,
her work and commitments to her family.
