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.
When A Madea Family Funeral was released in 2019, Perry insinuated that he was finished with playing the part.
Along with A Madea Family Funeral, Perry also attempted to say goodbye to the character with “Madea’s Farewell Tour,” which saw Perry performing to sold-out crowds.
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.
