Straight from its TIFF Red Carpet Premier Gala - Tyler Perry, Ryan Eggold & the Rest of the Cast of Perry’s New Netflix Movie, A Jazzman’s Blues, with a Surprise Visit from Oprah

Playwright, Producer, Director and Actor Tyler Perry’s latest epic, A Jazzman’s Blues, is now streaming on Netflix. It was the first screenplay he ever wrote over 25 years ago. Set in Georgia, it stars actors Ryan Eggold (“Dr. Max Goodwin” on the NBC series, New Amsterdam), Joshua Boone, Solea Pfeiffer, Amirah Vann, and Austin Scott in a story of forbidden love and family secrets that stretches from the 1940’s to the 1980’s. Throw in the couple’s forced separation, “Leanne”, the female lead passing herself off as White & marrying a prominent White man, her mother “Ethel”, played by Lana Young, a tantalizing murder-mystery spiked with dazzling musical numbers choreographed by the legendary Debbie Allen, music composed by Aaron Zigman, and a nod to the Holocaust in “Ira”, Eggold’s character; and you have another testament to Black American music, resilience and storytelling that is very different from Perry’s previous comedic works. A Jazzman’s Blues also explores the shared experience between American Blacks & Jews and their strong connection during the Civil Rights Movement, reminding us that love conquers all, including racism. Hailed for his humanity, Perry transformed himself from flat broke and sleeping in his car to one of Hollywood’s foremost screenwriters and comedians, reaching Billionaire status. As Accredited Media, I had the privilege of attending A Jazzman’s Blues TIFF Red Carpet Gala to chat with Perry about why making this film was on his bucket list, how it might just be the mark of a new chapter from him and how his faith & conviction carried him through. I also spoke to the rest of the cast about what attracted them to their roles, and the movie’s meaning & purpose. One of Perry’s best friends, Oprah Winfrey, even dropped by.
