The highly anticipated first trailer for Ruth & Boaz (2025) has arrived, offering a breathtaking glimpse into one of the Bible’s most enduring love stories. Directed by Ava DuVernay (A Wrinkle in Time, Selma) and starring Zendaya as Ruth and John David Washington as Boaz, this sweeping historical drama reimagines the timeless tale of loyalty, faith, and divine destiny.

Set against the golden barley fields of ancient Moab and Bethlehem, the trailer showcases stunning cinematography, grand-scale production design, and powerful performances. The teaser highlights Ruth’s unwavering devotion to her mother-in-law, Naomi (played by Viola Davis), and her transformative journey from foreign widow to redeemed bride. Meanwhile, Boaz emerges as a noble landowner whose kindness changes both their lives forever.

With a soaring orchestral score, intense emotional moments, and a touch of battle sequences (hinting at the era’s conflicts), Ruth & Boaz promises to be both a spiritual epic and a cinematic masterpiece.

Coming to theaters Christmas 2025. “Where you go, I will go… and where you stay, I will stay.”
