Code of Envy

Mariah is living a truly fulfilling life with her husband and two best friends. One night, she runs into her old friend Neveah. After taking pity on her and her current circumstance, Neveah leeches onto Mariah and her life, sparking Nevaeh's jealousy and transforming her into the dangerous alter ego, Envy, endangering their friendship and lives.

Directed by Robert L. Parker III, Code of Envy leans on a strong ensemble — Shakerian Ward, Desiree Robinson, Joshua Farmer — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2024.
