Madea’s back — hallelujer! Tyler Perry returns with everyone’s favorite character in Tyler Perry’s A Madea Homecoming, the newest film in the Madea franchise set to debut on Netflix.
Writer-director-producer Perry stars in the film that centers around Madea’s great-grandson’s college graduation, though the celebratory moment hits a halt as hidden secrets and family drama threaten to destroy the happy homecoming.
The film features all-stars of the Madea franchise, including Tamela Mann (Cora), David Mann (Mr. Brown), and Cassi Davis Patton (Aunt Bam), as well as a guest appearance from iconic Irish actor Brendan O’Carroll, who matches Madea’s comedic prowess as Agnes Brown.
The cast also includes Gabrielle Dennis, Brandon Black, and Isha Blaaker. The producers also include Will Areu and Mark Swinton. A Madea Homecoming was shot entirely at Tyler Perry Studios.
Perry’s films, including 11 in the Madea franchise, have grossed over 1 billion dollars at the North American box office.
The new movie continues Perry’s work with Netflix following A Fall From Grace, which was seen by 39 million households in its first month.
In A Fall From Grace, disheartened since her ex-husband’s affair, Grace Waters (Crystal Fox) feels restored by a new romance. But when secrets erode her short-lived joy, Grace’s vulnerable side turns violent. The movie is an electrifying thriller co-starring Phylicia Rashad, Bresha Webb, Cicely Tyson, and writer/director Perry.
Perry is also writing, directing, and producing A Jazzman’s Blues for Netflix. Starring Joshua Boone and Solea Pfeiffer, the film unravels forty years of secrets and lies in a tale of forbidden love and family drama soundtracked by juke joint blues in the deep South.
Previously considered the last Madea movie, A Madea Family Funeral was released by Lionsgate in March of 2019. Written, directed, and produced by Perry, the movie grossed $74.7 million worldwide on a budget of just $20 million.
The highest-grossing Madea movie is 2009’s Madea Goes to Jail, which earned $90.5 million at the North American box office. The movie cost just $17.5 million to make, not counting marketing expenses.
