Rueben's Ramblings

The new OWN drama Queen Sugar will debut on September 6 and September with a two-night series premiere at 10 PM each night.

The series follows the life of two sisters, Nova Bordelon (Rutina Wesley from True Blood), a formidable journalist and activist from New Orleans, and Charley Bordelon (Dawn-Lyen Gardner from Star Wars: The Clone Wars), a modern woman, who, with her teenage son Micah, leaves her upscale apartment in Los Angeles and moves to the heart of Louisiana to claim an inheritance from her recently departed father: an 800-acre sugarcane farm.

The cast also includes Bianca Lawson (Rogue), Greg Vaughn (Days of Our Lives) and Dondre Whitfield (All My Children and Mistresses) [among others].

Here is a trailer for Queen Sugar.
