The 49-year-old actor/director said in an interview on Bevy Smith‘s SiriusXM show on Monday that he’s ready to kill off the iconic and hilarious grandmother character.
“It’s time for me to kill that old b*tch, I’m tired, man! I’m tired,” Tyler joked.
Tyler first introduced Madea to fans in the 1999 play I Can Do Bad All by Myself in Chicago.
He revealed that we would be seeing her for the last time in A Madea Family Funeral which premieres in March, 2019.
“We gonna say goodbye in ’19. I just don’t want to be her age playing her,” Tyler said. “So, we’re going to say goodbye to her.”
