Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson is continuing her run in Tyler Perry‘s film universe — this time joining the ensemble cast for the third installment of his “Why Did I Get Married?” franchise.
Henson will star in the film, titled “Why Did I Get Married Again?,” alongside returning players Tasha Smith, Sharon Leal, Michael Jai White, Lamman Rucker and Jill Scott.
The new movie marks her fifth collaboration with Perry, after “I Can Do Bad All By Myself,” “The Family That Preys,” “Acrimony” and “Straw,” which was a hit for Netflix earlier this year.
Perry, who wrote, produced and is directing the film, also stars as one of the eight college friends who wrestle with challenges in their marriages during their annual reunions.
The original movie, 2007’s “Why Did I Get Married?,” which was inspired by Perry’s play of the same name, was a box office hit — opening at No. 1 in. the U.S. on the way to a $55.8 million global tally.
