Swirl Films in partnership with Tami Roman and Jill Ramsey of Roman Ramsey Productions, announce their new production partnership for “Whatever It Takes”– an original holiday dramedy slated to premiere later this year on BET+.

The holidays are typically a time when people come together, and love fills the room and the hearts of all who are present. However, In “Whatever It Takes,” Santa’s big bag is carrying nothing but folks’ emotional baggage. When it all gets exposed, chaos ensues, and everyone must learn how to navigate the unexpected obstacles. This film combines comedy, drama, and the warmth of the holiday spirit to remind audiences that sometimes you have to do whatever it takes to find love and happiness.

“We wanted to create a film that would not only entertain, but also resonate with people during the holiday season,” said Tami Roman. “It’s a story that showcases the beauty of love and the power of forgiveness, even in the face of the most challenging situations.”

“As a female-led production company, it is our mission to always give the proper representation of other women – especially black women. This film encompasses that; light hearted, romance, fun, intertwined with real life circumstances nonetheless,” said Roman Ramsey co-founder, Jill Ramsey.

“Working with Tami and Jill on this movie has been such an enjoyable journey. I believe ‘Whatever It Takes’ is a story that will connect with viewers and inspire them to treasure the time they spend with their loved ones, especially around the holidays!” said Swirl Films founder, Eric Tomosunas.

Directed by Tailiah Breon, “Whatever It Takes” promises to resonate with audiences everywhere.
