Steve Dietl / Tyler Perry Studio via NetflixAmerica’s favorite grandmother Mabel “Madea” Simmons is back and badder than ever — meaning she’s still “braless and lawless.” Netflix dropped the trailer Wednesday for Tyler Perry’s “A Madea Homecoming,” the 12th installment in the iconic franchise.
Perry — who has been playing Madea since 1999, when he first debuted the character in his play, “I Can Do Bad All by Myself” — was planning to retire his gray wig after 2019’s “A Madea Family Funeral” and his 2020 live “Farewell Play Tour,” but changed his mind after the pandemic hit. The film is the first Madea installment to premiere on Netflix. Since 2005, the franchise has grossed more than $670 million at the box office, according to Forbes. But the collaboration is not Perry’s first with the streaming service — “A Madea Homecoming” follows his 2020 film, “A Fall From Grace,” which reached 39 million households on Netflix in its first month, and will be joined by his upcoming project, “A Jazzman’s Blues.
Yay. More Madea getting into more trouble 😆😆😆
