VENtv Plus announces its upcoming original drama series, Detective Woodson, starring acclaimed talk show host Prince TJ and popular music artist Christian Monaé. The series, set to premiere in 2025, follows the complex and gripping world of Detective James Woodson, portrayed by Prince TJ, and his loyal friend and co-partner Tyreek Johnson, played by Monaé. This series promises to bring viewers an intricate blend of mystery, suspense, and camaraderie, with a storyline that dives deep into the challenges of justice, racism, and loyalty.
Detective Woodson is the brainchild of writer, producer, and director Bry’Neir Seymore, who is known for his ability to craft dynamic, character-driven narratives. Seymore’s vision brings a fresh perspective to the drama/comedy genre, presenting audiences with a gritty, unpredictable storyline filled with twists and turns.
The story centers on Detective James Woodson, a seasoned detective with an unshakable commitment to justice, whose own past shadows his every move. Woodson’s life takes a new direction when he partners with Tyreek Johnson, a former streetwise hustler trying to make a fresh start. Together, Woodson and Johnson tackle high-stakes investigations while navigating the murky moral landscape of a city rife with crime and corruption.
As Woodson, Prince TJ brings depth to the character, balancing his drive for justice with the emotional toll of a profession that demands endless sacrifice. Haunted by a tragic loss from his past, Woodson’s resilience is tested as he faces mounting threats, both on the streets and within his own department. Prince TJ’s portrayal promises a character who is relentless, morally complex, and driven by an unbreakable code.
Playing Woodson’s partner, Tyreek Johnson, Christian Monaé will bring his charisma and depth to a character who serves as both Woodson’s moral compass and closest confidant. Tyreek is no stranger to the hardships of life on the streets, but his dedication to turning his life around brings a unique perspective to their cases. With a touch of wit, loyalty, and survival instinct, Tyreek is the counterbalance to Woodson’s intensity, creating a dynamic that’s both tense and endearing.
Writer, producer, and director Bry’Neir Seymore shares, “Detective Woodson is more than just a detective story; it’s a look at how two unlikely allies find common ground and fight for something greater than themselves. The characters are shaped by their pasts and the moral dilemmas they face, making them relatable yet unpredictable.”
The series will showcase a wide range of cases that test Woodson and Johnson’s skills and beliefs. From intricate conspiracies to facing off against powerful crime syndicates, each case will take audiences deeper into the dark underbelly of the city. As Woodson and Johnson peel back layers of deception, they also confront their own fears, forming a powerful bond forged through survival, sacrifice, and trust.
Detective Woodson will mark a new chapter for VENtv Plus, as its first drama series, bringing an edgy, high-caliber detective drama to the streaming platform. With the combined talents of Prince TJ and Christian Monaé, under the direction of Bry’Neir Seymore, the show promises an unforgettable viewing experience for drama fans everywhere.
