Stars Shine at Premiere of Tyler Perry’s ‘Duplicity’ in NYC

NEW YORK CITY, March 19, 2025 — The stars of Tyler Perry‘s latest film, “Duplicity,” graced the red carpet at its New York premiere on March 18 at the Museum of Modern Art. The event showcased stunning fashion moments, highlighting the unique style of the evening’s attendees.

Kat Graham, 35, one of the film’s leads, made a striking appearance in a black Saint Laurent dress featuring a midsection cutout. Accompanying her look were elegant gold accessories, including bracelets and rings. “I wanted to bring my character to life in my own way,” said Graham, who plays Marley, an attorney investigating the police-involved shooting of her friend’s husband.

Co-star Meagan Tandy also stood out in a vibrant green dress. Tyler Lepley, portraying Marley’s boyfriend, added a fresh twist to the red carpet in a deep red jacket. The gathering included other notable figures such as Perry himself, who directed and wrote the film, alongside Joshua Adeyeye, RonReaco Lee, and Jimi Stanton.

Perry described “Duplicity” as a thriller that explores the themes of systemic abuse and deception. “I wanted to write a thriller about people abusing the system on all sides,” Perry remarked. “While the story seems straightforward at first glance, there’s so much more lurking beneath the surface.”

The film focuses on Marley’s quest for truth with the help of her boyfriend, a former cop turned private investigator. “Her journey unfolds a treacherous maze of deception,” Perry explained during a press briefing about the project.

Graham’s fashion was further elevated by her choice of footwear, the Tess sandal by Le Silla, retailing at $765. The sleek design featured a crystal-embellished ankle strap that complemented her striking look. “I wanted my shoes to reflect the boldness of my character,” Graham noted.

“Duplicity” is set to debut on Prime Video on March 20, 2025, promising audiences a gripping narrative interwoven with social commentary. As the cast continues their promotional efforts, the excitement surrounding the film’s release is palpable.
