Very few romantic films have been able to depict the complexity of how love can test the boundaries of family relationships than Jason’s Lyric.
The film starred Allen Payne as Jason and Jada Pinkett as Lyric (hence the name) as two Black lovers from Houston, who go on to find that their bond will have to endure the ultimate test from the people most closest to them.
The storied movie is celebrating its 20th anniversary today and we’re reuniting the ensemble cast by giving you an update on their current whereabouts. And remember, love takes courage.
