One Village Entertainment, an RLJ Entertainment (NASDAQ: RLJE) brand, announces the release of Frat Brothers, a coming-of-age drama about creating your own legacy. The directorial debut of Dante Wyatt, the film stars Romeo Miller (Jumping the Broom), Darrin Henson (Stomp the Yard), Mishon Ratliff (Lincoln Heights) and Denyce Lawton (Tyler Perry's House of Payne). A journey of self-discovery for two brothers venturing out to college, Frat Brothers is available on DVD for an SRP of $14.98 on Oct. 8, 2013.
Kyle (Mishon Ratliff) and Quentin "Q" Cooper (Richard John Reliford) have been raised to carry on their family's proud legacy in the fraternity Delta Gamma Gamma. But Kyle is about to surprise his brother and disappoint his over-bearing father (Darrin Dewitt Henson) by pledging another fraternity, causing a huge family rift that no one saw coming. Now the brothers try to tackle newfound college life...but this time as rivals.
The film also features the hit single "My Brothers" by Mishon (featuring Romeo).
