Madea’s Harley Hustle (2025)
Tagline: “She came for peace. She left with a Harley.”

🏍️ Overview
Tyler Perry revs up the chaos as Madea takes her biggest detour yet — straight into the heart of biker country. Known for her sass, no-nonsense wisdom, and unstoppable presence, Madea swaps her front porch for leather jackets, roaring engines, and an outlaw attitude. This time, family drama collides with full-throttle action in a comedy adventure that proves no gang is ready for the force of Madea.
📖 Plot Summary
When Madea inherits a Harley-Davidson from a long-lost cousin, she assumes it’s just another old thing to sell. But a quick spin around town lands her smack in the middle of a heated biker feud between two rival gangs. One side wants her gone, the other thinks she’s the “chosen rider” destined to lead them into the ultimate rally showdown.
Unimpressed by biker codes and unbothered by threats, Madea decides to handle things her way — loud, fearless, and with plenty of attitude. Along the way, she reluctantly teams up with:
- Ron Perlman as Hawk, a grizzled biker boss who takes one look at Madea and realizes she’s the only person crazy enough to stand up to their enemies.
- Melissa McCarthy as Penny Jo, a bumbling, overenthusiastic wannabe biker who adopts Madea as her unlikely mentor in both life and leather.
From biker bars where the karaoke ends in food fights, to high-speed highway chases where Madea somehow uses her purse as a weapon, this unlikely trio barrels across the open road in search of freedom, respect, and a little peace and quiet (though we all know Madea never gets quiet).
