Happy Hallerween!

Tyler Perry's next Madea movie, "Boo! A Madea Halloween," is filming now in Atlanta. He'll be back in his multiple roles as both pistol-packing, wisecracking Madea and her brother and sparring partner Joe. (And also the more straightforward Brian). Perry posted these photos on his public Facebook page. Check out his transformation!
