The first cast members for the upcoming CBS daytime soap opera BEYOND THE GATES have been revealed. Tamara Tunie, Daphnee Duplaix and Karla Mosley will star as prominent members of the Dupree family. Formerly known as “The Gates,” this series from the CBS Studios / NAACP Venture is the first Black one-hour daytime drama to air on television. BEYOND THE GATES begins production later this fall in Atlanta and will premiere on CBS in early 2025.

Tamara Tunie stars as Anita Dupree, matriarch of the family. A famous singer back in the day, Anita worked hard for her success, and raised two daughters with her now-retired senator husband. But underneath her glamorous and refined exterior is a fierceness she gained from her humble beginnings in Chicago. Tamara Tunie is a seasoned daytime star appearing on “As the World Turns” for many years. Also, she originated the role of medical examiner Dr. Melinda Warner with a now landmark 23 seasons on the legendary series “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.” In addition, she has held recurring roles on shows including BLUE BLOODS, THE GOOD WIFE and ELEMENTARY for the Network.

Bravo to 'The Bold and the Beautiful': Why The Avant Family Is a Major Success

Bravo to 'The Bold and the Beautiful': Why The Avant Family Is a Major Success
By Carolyn LeVine Topol

Bravo to CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful for recognizing that the addition of a new family on the scene does not have to take away from the show’s established families. Instead the new members of the cast add fresh twists and turns to the developing storylines.

Initiated by the front-burner storyline of supermodel, Maya Avant, born Myron (played by Karla Mosley), the Avant family was gradually introduced to the B & B’s California scene. By allowing the audience to get to know the first Avant newcomer, Nicole, Maya’s sister (played by Reign Edwards), the viewer was able to gradually learn Maya had a secret related to her past.

After learning the truth of Maya’s birth gender, Nicole and Maya began to refer to more family members the two left behind. However, the Avant family’s measured entrance onto the scene, enabled them to merge alongside the well-established Forrester clan without diminishing the importance of one of the show’s primary families.
