Time II: Unfinished Business is directed and executive produced by filmmaker Fox Rich, also known as Sibil Fox Richardson, making her feature directorial debut. Produced by Daniel Lafrentz. This is premiering at the 2024 Essence Film Festival next month. No release dates are set yet – stay tuned for more. Interested?
