DeVon Franklin can always count on his special person to support him.
Ahead of the NAACP Image Awards on Feb. 28, the film producer—who earned six nominations for his 2025 film Ruth & Boaz—and his wife Maria Castillo stepped out for a date night at the pre-show’s Creative Honors in Los Angeles.
During the Feb. 26 event, the couple wore all-black looks on the carpet. Devon, 47, kept it simple in a suit while Maria, 29, sported a high neck dress, gold jewelry and red-bottom pumps. After posing for a few photos together, Devon—who was previously married to Meagan Good—also reunited with Ruth & Boaz actor Serayah inside the venue.
Indeed, this event was a huge moment for the cast to celebrate their accolades. In January, the NAACP announced the film received an Outstanding Limited Movie nod. Meanwhile, Serayah (who starred as Ruth) was recognized in the Outstanding Actress category and Tyler Lepley’s portrayal of Boaz landed him in Outstanding Actor.
