Everyone’s favorite larger-than-life matriarch is back, and this time, she’s trading her usual stomping grounds for sun-soaked beaches and tropical vibes. Madea’s Destination Wedding, the 13th installment in the beloved Madea film series, is set to bring the laughs, drama, and chaos fans have come to expect—but with a Bahamian twist. Following the massive success of A Madea Homecoming on Netflix, Tyler Perry’s iconic character is ready to take center stage once again, promising another round of raucous comedy and unforgettable family antics.
What Is Madea’s Destination Wedding About?
The film follows Madea and her crew as they jet off to the Bahamas for a wedding that no one saw coming. Madea’s nephew, Brian, and his ex-wife, Debrah, are in for a shock when they learn their daughter, Tiffany, is engaged to a rapper she met on a yacht—and the wedding is just two weeks away. As the family gathers in paradise, tensions rise, secrets spill, and Madea’s signature brand of humor and wisdom takes center stage. Expect plenty of hijinks and the kind of family drama that only Madea can navigate.
Who’s in the Cast?
Madea’s Destination Wedding brings together a mix of familiar faces and fresh talent. Tyler Perry, of course, reprises his iconic role as Madea, while also serving as the film’s writer, director, and producer. Joining him are franchise veterans like Cassi Davis Patton (Aunt Bam), David Mann (Mr. Brown), and Tamela Mann (Cora). The cast also includes breakout stars such as Taja V. Simpson (The Oval), Diamond White (Dear White People), Jermaine Harris (Saturdays), and Xavier Smalls (Beauty in Black). With this ensemble, the film promises to deliver the perfect blend of nostalgia and new energy.
