\n\tTyler Perry<\/a> has locked cast for Why Did I Get Married Again?, a sequel to his 2007 comedy Why Did I Get Married? that he\u2019ll topline for Netflix<\/a>. Joining him in the cast are Taraji P. Henson<\/a>, Jill Scott, Richard T. Jones, Tasha Smith, Michael Jai White, Lamman Rucker, Sharon Leal, Armani Greer, Everett Osborne, Da\u2019Vinchi, Laya Deleon Hayes, Jaden Michael, Charles L. Smith, Derrick A. King, and Sydney Winbush.<\/p>\n

\n\tAn adaptation of Perry\u2019s play of the same name, released by Lionsgate, the original film follows four married couples \u2014 close friends who reunite once a year for a weeklong vacation together. On the surface, the retreat is meant to help them relax and reconnect, but it quickly becomes a crucible for examining the cracks in their relationships. <\/p>\n

\n\tIn the sequel, the couples reunite in celebration as Marcus (White) and Angela\u2019s (Smith) daughter prepares to tie the knot. After being apart for quite some time, they learn quickly that as much as things change, they stay the same. Realizing their children have grown up to be so much like them, they must reflect on the examples they\u2019ve set and ask themselves that age-old question, why did they get married\u2026 again?<\/p>\n

\n\tPerry will direct from his own script and produce alongside Angi Bones and Tony Strickland. Pic is the latest in a creative partnership with Netflix, which has him writing, directing and producing films and TV series \u2014 including some faith-based projects \u2014 for the streamer. Perry\u2019s most recent film out of the partnership, Madea\u2019s Destination Wedding, spent four weeks on the Global Top 10 Movies (English) List. Straw, also starring Henson, was another success, spending five weeks on the Global Top 10 Movies List (English). The latter reached the Top 10 Movies List in 93 countries and was #1 in 62 countries.<\/p>\n
