Less than 30 days until the premiere episode of “Beyond the Gates,” and CBS has finally released the first full-length trailer and key art for the daytime drama series.
In the trailer, viewers are treated to tales of betrayal, blackmail, secrets, a wedding, and a figurative funeral with the Duprees family agreeing that they must work together to keep a semblance of normalcy in their everyday lives.
Expanding on the Dani Dupree (Karla Mosley) storyline, we learn that not only is her ex-husband, Bill Hamilton (Timon Durrett), set to marry the woman he cheated with, but Bill also has some dirt on the family through his experience with getting them out of some tough situations, particularly Dani’s father, Vernon (Clifton Davis).
One of the most quotable lines in the trailer came from Dani’s sister, Dr. Nicole Dupree Richardson (Daphnee Duplaix) and Bill’s fiancee, Hayley Lawson (Marquita Goings) discussing the latter’s relationship with Bill. “I fell in love with an inconvenient man,” Hayley tells Nicole, who retorts, “Now you have to deal with inconvenient consequences. You see how that works?”
The trailer closes with a confident Dani telling Hayley, “See you around the neighborhood.”
Watch the full-length trailer below.
