Netflix Nabs One Of The Biggest Directors With Multi-Year Deal

The first two films which Tyler Perry is set to helm at Amazon are already under way in pre-production, with announced titles including Divorce in the Black, and Black, White, & Blue. Like many of Perry’s projects, the films will both focus on themes of racial identity and societal impact on the black experience in America. In addition to Tyler Perry’s non-Netflix adventures, the star will also serve as the subject of a documentary-series set to premiere next month titled Maxine’s Baby.
