Tyler Perry Will Return as Madea in New Netflix Movie
We haven't seen the last of Madea after all. After starring in eleven movies as the mature woman starting with 2005's Diary of a Mad Black Woman, Tyler Perry seemingly announced his retirement from playing Madea upon the release of A Madea Family Funeral in 2019. That seemed to be the end of the road for the career-defining character at the time, but now it seems that Netflix made Perry an offer that he couldn't refuse.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, Perry has signed a deal with Netflix to bring back Madea one more time for the new planned sequel called A Madea Homecoming. The new movie will serve as the 12th installment of the Madea movie series and it's planned for a release on the streamer in 2022. Word is the drama will also be shot at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta, similar to most other projects taken on by the filmmaker.
