Tyler Perry is sending Madea to the crossroads.
It’s been 20 years since the entertainment mogul introduced the slick-mouthed, gun-toting, badly-built granny to the world in his plays, films, and television appearances.
In 2019, he’s sending Madea to the upper room with a farewell stage tour and his forthcoming film, Tyler Perry’s a Madea Family Funeral, slated to arrive on March 1, 2019.

During a recent interview on Bevy Smith’s SiriusXM show “Bevelations,” Tyler said:
I’m happy to kill that old b–ch, I’m tired, man.
I just don’t want to be her age, playing her.
Tyler Perry also revealed A Madea Family Funeral was filmed two years ago, but he staggered it out with the release of Acrimony and Nobody’s Fool, which opens in theaters on Friday.
Are you sad to see Madea go?
