Tyler Perry to kill off the Madea character in 2019

According to Tyler Perry, the days of his famous onscreen character Madea are coming to an end. Tyler Perry revealed that he’s killing off the iconic character next year, nearly two decades after everyone was introduced to the gun-toting grandmother.
“This is it,” Perry told host Bevy Smith Monday on her SiriusXM radio show, “Bevelations.” Madea will make a final cameo in a farewell stage tour and in 2019’s “Tyler Perry’s A Madea Family Funeral,” but based on Perry’s admission, it may be the profane matriarch being laid to rest.

He said “It’s time for me to kill that old (expletive). I’m tired, we’re gonna say goodbye in 2019, I just don’t want to be her age, playing her. I Can Do Bad All by Myself.”
