Madea Goes to Jail set for release in 2025. The original Madea Goes to Jail (2009) was part of Tyler Perry’s Madea series, a comedy-drama franchise that follows the character of Mabel “Madea” Simmons, played by Perry himself. The 2009 film focuses on Madea’s wild antics as she is sent to jail after an altercation, and it explores themes of redemption, family dynamics, and personal transformation, while incorporating Perry’s signature humor.
Though Madea Goes to Jail was a hit in its time, Tyler Perry has not officially announced any plans to release a Madea Goes to Jail sequel or follow-up in 2025. In fact, Madea’s Farewell Play (2020) marked the end of Perry’s role as the character for a while, as he had previously announced his retirement from the role, suggesting the end of Madea’s cinematic journey.

That said, Perry has remained active in the film and television industry, creating other content like The Haves and the Have Nots and Sistas.
If you’re imagining a new Madea movie, it could feature her returning to jail (maybe for another wild escapade or to help others in a more dramatic setting), or perhaps a new version of her being involved in a more modern, socially relevant storyline.
Would you like me to create a concept for a Madea Goes to Jail sequel set in 2025, with new ideas for the plot and direction? Let me know!
