Tyler Perry’s A Madea Homecoming #1 On Netflix

Perry, who shot the movie in Atlanta at his namesake studio, went to social media to express appreciation for his fans, who have evidently turned out in droves to stream the movie.

WOW!!!!! Since the beginning of my career, I was always told that “black movies” don’t do well in other countries. I want to say, “thank you” to not only my ride or dies in the USA, but to all of you in the rest of the world that helped Hollywood see what I’ve always known! Movies with Black people in them can appeal to the entire globe. Thank you, thank you, thank you. THANK YOU Netflix!! #AMadeaHomecoming

The synapsis for the movie is this: “Madea’s back — hallelujer! And she’s not putting up with any nonsense as family drama erupts at her great-grandson’s college graduation celebration.”
