Emmy and Honorary Oscar winner Tyler Perry (A Jazzman’s Blues) has set another new film, titled Mea Culpa, at Netflix — enlisting Kelly Rowland (Think Like A Man), Trevante Rhodes (Moonlight), Sean Sagar (The Gentlemen), Nick Sagar (The Princess Switch trilogy) and RonReaco Lee (Nappily Ever After) to star.
The film written, directed and produced by Perry follows a criminal defense attorney who, in the hopes of becoming partner, takes on the case of an artist who may or may not have murdered his girlfriend.
Others set as producers include Angi Bones, Will Areau and Rowland. Mea Culpa will mark Perry’s fifth Netflix feature following Six Triple Eight, A Fall From Grace, A Madea Homecoming, A Jazzman’s Blues and Adam McKay’s end-of-the-world comedy Don’t Look Up, which had him as part of the ensemble.
Six Triple Eight is a drama telling the true story of the only all-Black, all-female World War II Battalion, exec produced by and starring Kerry Washington, which went into production just last month.
