Madea is coming back for another movie on Netflix.
Tyler recently explained why he’s bringing back the beloved character out of retirement.
Basically, he said we all need more laughter in our lives.
He said, “I was looking at the state of the world and how polarized it is… nobody’s laughing. Nobody’s getting the chance to belly-laugh anymore. And I’m like, ‘What tool do I have in my arsenal that can bring that kind of laughter.”
“A Madea Homecoming” will be on Netflix on February 25.
Does Madea make you belly-laugh?
