How Tyler Perry went from Madea to mogul is the inspirational arc of this biographical portrait, named after his mother, Willie Maxine Perry, who inspired Tyler’s most famous (and for some infamous) character. The film charts Perry’s rise from a traumatic childhood with an abusive father to making it big with 2005’s Diary of a Mad Black Woman (introducing his breakout character of Madea) through his more recent successes as a studio head and filmmaker.
