Tyler Perry and Angelina Jolie are joining forces, with the two celebrities starring in an upcoming thriller together, according to Deadline.

The flick is called "Those Who Wish Me Dead." It follows a 14-year-old boy, who witnesses a murder and enters a federal protection program. When the assassins began to pursue the teen, he must use his survival skills to stay alive.

Finn Little is set to play the protagonist, while Jolie will portray a woman who occupies a fire lookout tower. No details about Perry’s character have been revealed yet, and the movie has no release date yet.

Perry most recently wrote, directed, produced and starred in "A Madea Family Funeral," which was released in March. The filmmaker said it would be Madea's last appearance.
