Lionsgate has provided ComingSoon.net with your exclusive first look at the new poster for Tyler Perry’s Boo! A Madea Halloween, coming to theaters on October 21. The poster is a play on the original poster for The Exorcist, the William Friedkin classic which opened in theaters in 1973. Check out The Exorsister in the poster below!
The film’s origins date back to when Tyler Perry and Chris Rock conspired to include a fictitious Madea Halloween movie in Rock’s film Top Five. Lionsgate then approached Perry and suggested that they make the movie for real.
In Boo! A Madea Halloween, Madea winds up in the middle of mayhem when she spends a hilarious, haunted Halloween fending off killers, paranormal poltergeists, ghosts, ghouls, and zombies while keeping a watchful eye on a group of misbehaving teens.
Perry will play the role of “Madea,” in addition to the roles of “Joe” and “Brian.” The film will also star Bella Thorne as “Rain,” Cassi Davis as “Aunt Bam,” Patrice Lovely as “Hattie,” Andre Hall as “Quinton,” Yousef Erakat as “Jonathan,” Lexy Panterra as “Leah,” Diamond White as “Tiffany,” Liza Koshy as “Aday,” Brock O’Hurn as “Horse,” Jimmy Tatro as “Sean,” JC Caylen as “Mikey,” Kian Lawley as “Bean Boy,” and Mike Tornabene as “Dino.”
