Tyler Perry's 'A Jazzman's Blues' Image Unveils Star-Crossed Lovers

In what Netflix is saying was a project that Tyler Perry has been “waiting to tell for 27 years,” we’re finally getting a first look at the multi hyphenated creative’s upcoming drama, A Jazzman’s Blues. Written, directed, and produced by Perry, the feature will center on “a tale of forbidden love.” While not much else is known about the plot, it will be packed with scandals, secrets, and an unsolved murder.

The image, which Netflix released to its Twitter account today, reveals a period piece production set amidst trees and open fields. In it, we see Pfeiffer and Boone, who are presumably our star crossed lovers. Pfeiffer’s character dons a patterned dress with a wide neck piece and sits on a tree limb, hanging her feet from it. It appears that Boone’s character has come to speak with her while she’s been lost in a story as she holds a book in her hands.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The drama marks the second Perry-helmed feature to drop in 2022. In late February, the performer put out A Madea Homecoming, the twelfth installment of his Madea-centered universe. Prior to A Madea Homecoming, the last time we saw the larger-than-life antics of the grandmother was in 2019’s A Madea Family Funeral. In the meantime, Perry has kept busy with a slew of acting projects with titles including Don’t Look Up, PAW Patrol: The Movie, and Those Who Wish Me Dead.

Given the details we know about the story and the chemistry between its leading actors, we’re guessing it’s going to be a real tear-jerker.Perry discusses directing A Jazzman's Blues in the interview below:
