The well-received remake of DON’T TELL MOM THE BABYSITTER’S DEAD is set to make its streaming debut next month, arriving on BET+ on May 16th, 2024. The film was released in US theaters through Iconic Events Releasing on April 12th, 2024.

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead is a remake of the 1991 film and was directed by Wade Allain-Marcus, written by Chuck Hayward and stars Simone Joy Jones, Ms. Pat, Jermaine Fowler, June Squibb, and Nicole Richie.

In the film, seventeen year old Tanya's plans for a carefree summer are derailed when her stressed-to-the-limit mom takes off for a wellness retreat and puts Tanya and her three siblings in the charge of a crotchety (and racist) old babysitter. The babysitter’s sudden death leaves the kids short on cash and reluctant to pull mom prematurely out of her much-needed R&R, so Tanya is forced to get a job. Posing as an adult, she gets a gig as the executive assistant at a fashion company and overnight is thrust into the world of adulthood and parenting.
