“It seems like you had a lot to get over today.” Indeed. Netflix has unveiled an official trailer for the crime thriller titled Straw, the latest Tyler Perry film created for streaming on Netflix as part of his deal with the film studio. This will be out in June – his second film this year following Duplicity for Prime Video a few months ago. In Straw, Taraji P. Henson a single mother who watches her desperate day spiral into chaos. Sounds like that title is a reference to the idiom about “the last straw.” She becomes the prime suspect in a crime she never meant to commit—suddenly, her survival depends on the one thing she’s never been able to trust: the people around her. “She finds herself in a horrible situation where one of those days, you wake up and everything that could go wrong, goes wrong.” The film also stars Sherri Shepherd, Teyana Taylor, Sinbad, Rockmond Dunbar, Ashley Versher, Mike Merrill, and Glynn Turman. This doesn’t seem like Tyler Perry’s typical thrillers, I just hope he wrote her a good way out of this bank robbery predicament.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Tyler Perry’s thriller film Straw, direct from YouTube:
A single mother’s (Taraji P. Henson) world unravels into chaos as her day goes from bad to worse to catastrophic as she struggles to care for her ill daughter. Pushed right to the brink by a world that seems indifferent to her existence, she’s forced to confront impossible choices in a society that offers her no safety net. Straw is written and directed by American producer / filmmaker Tyler Perry, director of many films including Madea’s Family Reunion, Why Did I Get Married?, Meet the Browns, The Family That Preys, I Can Do Bad All by Myself, For Colored Girls, Madea’s Big Happy Family, Good Deeds, Madea’s Witness Protection, Madea Christmas, The Single Moms Club, Boo! Madea Halloween, Acrimony, Nobody’s Fool, A Fall from Grace, A Jazzman’s Blues, Mea Culpa, Divorce in the Black, The Six Triple Eight, and this year’s Duplicity as well. Produced by Tyler Perry, Tony L. Strickland, Angi Bones. Netflix will debut Tyler Perry’s Straw film streaming on Netflix worldwide starting June 6th, 2025 this summer. Anyone want to watch?
