Terry McMillan Presents: Forever Official TRAILER: Does Taye Diggs’ Johnnie Wins Over Meagan Good’s Carlie And Her Kids? Watch

As a fervent admirer of heart-wrenching love stories and a connoisseur of emotional rollercoasters, I am absolutely thrilled about the upcoming Lifetime movie, Terry McMillan Presents: Forever! With Taye Diggs and Meagan Good in the lead roles, this film promises to be a captivating exploration of love, family, and personal growth.


In the upcoming month, Taye Diggs and Meagan Good will be joining forces for a heartwarming romance on Lifetime. Entitled “Forever,” this Terry McMillan production tells the story of two individuals navigating through life’s hurdles as they find love amidst their personal struggles.

Fate brings Diggs’ character, Johnnie, and Meagan Good’s character, Carli together when the former is pulled over for speeding and expired registration, following his return from an 18-month military deployment. Unfortunately, upon his homecoming, he finds divorce papers instead of a warm welcome from his wife.

To avoid adding any more complexity to his life, Johnnie exerts effort not to develop romantic feelings towards Carli, a police officer who has three daughters. In Terry McMillan Presents: Forever, we see Johnnie becoming smitten with the first woman he encounters following his divorce, but it’s clear that their connection goes beyond mere attraction. They could potentially be well-suited for one another.

Upon my return from a stint in military duty, I found myself served divorce papers, an unexpected turn of events. My life at a juncture, I least anticipated falling for the local law enforcer, Carlie (Good), whom I met during a traffic stop for speeding.

Consequently, Johnnie sets out on a challenging adventure to win over Carli’s three daughters, who hold the key to Carli’s affection. However, Diggs, with his resilient personality forged in the military, is equally persistent and resolved to capture Carli’s heart.

However, there’s a condition. For him to fully grasp the essence of family and be the right man for Carli, he needs to relinquish some of his past apprehensions and regrets.

The debut trailer for the Lifetime movie was released on August 2, providing more insights into the heartwarming love tale between Johnnie and Carlie. Their first encounter happens at the roadside, where Johnnie, about to be arrested, receives a reprieve instead with only a warning.

A lively discussion ensues, and after inviting Carlie out for dinner, she queries, “Have you ever dated someone with children before?” He replies in the negative. Although taken aback, Johnnie doesn’t let it dampen his blossoming relationship; instead, he attempts to bond with her daughters, but their mischievous behavior soon becomes apparent.

In an attempt to win over Carli, Johnnie delivers flowers but encounters her daughters instead. One of them teases him, mentioning that their mother has a 11:30 p.m. curfew. “That one gives me the shivers,” Johnnie confides in Carli before the scene shifts to him questioning why she never remarried. Laughing, Carli responds, “Have you met my daughters?” as a jest.

As a devoted follower, I’m witnessing the growing bond between us day by day, weaving ourselves deeper into each other’s lives. However, it’s not an easy journey, as Carli’s daughters struggle to accept a new male presence they’ve never known before. One of them voiced their feelings, saying, “We’ve never had a father before.” In response, their mother clarified that the man who’s become a constant figure in our home and takes care of us is now their “Dad.”

In due course, Carla becomes apprehensive about growing overly attached to Johnny, who shares similar reservations regarding integrating into her family. The trailer concludes with a wedding scene as Johnny pledges his unwavering support for Carla and her kin “for eternity,” hinting at the commencement of their new chapter. This joyful beginning leaves viewers eagerly anticipating the unfolding storyline.

Terry McMillan Presents: Forever premieres on Saturday, August 24 at 8 p.m. ET on Lifetime.
