The busiest man in Hollywood returns with his latest movie.

Tyler Perry recruits Meagan Good and Cory Hardrict for the thrilling Drama, ‘Divorce in the Black.’

Perry has been a permanent fixture on our screens since the early 2000s with his portrayal of the iconic character Madea, a tough elderly woman.

A lot has changed since then as Perry has built his empire in Atlanta, becoming the first African-American to outright own a major film production studio.

However, despite all of the success, his motivations and filmmaking ambitions have remained the same, which is to empower women.

Many of his movies have been about his mother and his subconscious desire to empower her and take her from a vulnerable state into a position of power.

This is encapsulated through his latest movie, ‘Divorce in the Black’, a film which follows Ava [Good], a young bank professional who is heartbroken when her abusive husband, Dallas, demands a divorce. Dallas’ malicious actions unravel as Ava gets a chance to find true love with her destined soulmate.

Meagan Good and Cory Hardrict sit down with TGJ to discuss ‘Divorce in the Black’, how the movie will empower its audience, and advice from Tyler Perry.
