I'm sure all of us Tyler Perry fans know that he is working on a new TV show, "House of Payne" that will be on TBS beginning this summer.
But I just found out he's making a movie of his play "Why did I get married?" I love this play! Even without Madea, LOL.
I can't wait to see it! The cast includes: Michael Jai White, Malik Yoba, Janet Jackson, Tyler Perry and Jill Scott among others. It sounds like it's going to be great!There's no info on it about his website http://www.tylerperry.com not yet, anyway. I found out because I joined his mailing list.
I'm excited about both of these projects. I just wonder if the man ever takes a break, LOL.

I'm really looking forward to this play. Once I found out my girl Jill Scott was in it, I got even more excited about it. Overall, Perry has a great cast on his hands. Admittedly, I'm wondering how he snagged Janet, but it doesn't matter lol. He has her! Hmm, Malik Yoba...haven't heard that name in a while. I was wondering what happened to him after NY Undercover. I'm glad to hear he's still trying to make moves.

I have the play on DVD. I didn't know if I'd like a play without Madea, but thankfully I do!
I do wonder what part Tyler will be playing because he wasn't in the play. It will be interesting whatever role he plays. :-)

Yeah, I haven't seen the play yet, but I'll probably catch it on DVD too. I'll still go to the theater to see the movie though...gotta support.

I heard that too; I wonder why he doesn't do the one with Brown and Cora is in it; but hey, I heard House of Payne came on last summer but it wasn't good. but that's here say.

I think if he used Brown and Cora he couldn't tour with them.
I hadn't heard any feedback on House of Payne.
I'm still looking forward to it!
