Tyler Perry keeps outdoing himself! He has left a huge impact on stage and on the big screen, and now he has decided to bring his characters to a CARTOON series. The playwright-turned-filmmaker has partnered with animation company Exodus Film Group for the untitled series, which will be produced entirely up front before shopping to a network or releasing on DVD.  “After receiving thousands of letters from parents telling me how much their kids love Madea and realizing that a lot of the plays were not kid friendly,” said Perry, “I wanted to do something more appropriate, and this seems to be it. A ‘Madea’ animation looks like the best way.” Perry will create, write and executive produce the 22-minute cartoon episodes and also provide the voice of Mabel “Madea” Simmons. 

I truly admire Tyler Perry.
