Angie Orellana Hernandez
Boo! Here she comes again.
Mourners of the Madea franchise can take off their black veils. Tyler Perry is rebooting it with a 12th installment, A Madea Homecoming, for Netflix after saying goodbye to the iconic character in 2019.
Perry, who won an honorary Oscar for humanitarian work this year, said he planned to part ways with Madea at the premiere of the franchise s 11th film, A Madea Family Funeral. I don t want to be her age playing her, so it was time to shut it down and move on, Perry told the Hollywood Reporter in 2019. I ve got some other things I want to do … I m going to do something different.
