Regina Hall Searches for Mr. Right in ‘With This Ring’

24 Jan, 2015

Regina Hall scores her first leading role starring alongside Jill Scott and Eve Cooper in Lifetime’s latest romantic comedy ‘With This Ring’. The story follows the adventures of the three best friends who make a pact to get married within a years’ time.

The pledge comes after the ladies attend a New Year’s Eve wedding that makes the timing perfect to set and accomplish their goal. The clock is ticking and the adventures begin as the ladies attempt to make it down the aisle with either a new love or a man waiting in the wings.

While men tend to bypass the network for more ‘male-friendly’ outlets, With This Ring boasts charismatic situations that are sure to make even the toughest man giggle.

The Trending Report talked with Hall about the parallels between this role and her real life.

“I’ve made that vow” Hall says with a giggle remembering actually saying out loud with friends “by this time next year we’re going to be married…and I’m still single. So clearly I didn’t stick to it.”

“It’s been my friends that have gotten me through a lot of situations” Hall continues “and who reminds me of so many great things about life.”

Viviane, a successful gossip columnist played by Jill Scott and struggling actress Amaya played by Eve are the friends that help Hall along the way. But they have their own issues to deal with as well- Viviane is secretly in love with the father of her son and Amaya is desperate to break up a marriage so she can live happily ever after. Meanwhile, Hall’s character Trista isn’t over her commitment-phobic ex.

So will these ladies make it down the aisle? Of course you’ll have to watch and see but ultimately according to Hall the winner is the one who finds happiness. “Life doesn’t begin when. Life is right now.”
