On Friday, Netflix revealed the “A Fall from Grace” trailer on all its social platforms. The film will debut Jan. 17, and it stars Perry, Crystal Fox, Mehcad Brooks, Phylicia Rashad, Bresha Webb and Cicely Tyson.

The Twitter post teases the trailer with the tagline “Every woman has a breaking point.”

The story follows Grace Waters, played by Fox, a woman who is attempting to take on a new course after her ex marries his mistress and her son moves away. Along that path, she meets and falls in love with a younger man who gives her a new, positive outlook on life — until his sinister intentions are unveiled and his domineering ways take over. The plot switches gears once Waters is fed up with her misleading younger beau.

Fox and Hollywood legend Tyson have previously starred in Perry’s productions. Fox stars in Perry’s OWN series “The Haves and the Have Nots,” and Tyson starred in Perry’s films “Diary of a Mad Black Woman” and “Madea’s Family Reunion.” Brooks starred in Perry’s “Nobody’s Fool” in 2018.

With last spring’s “A Madea Family Funeral,” Perry said goodbye to the franchise that made him a star and led him down the path to multimillion-dollar television deals with OWN and BET. The last film of the series, which also included blockbusters including “Madea Goes to Jail” and “Boo! A Madea Halloween,” grossed more than $74 million worldwide.
