First Trailer For Tyler Perry’s ‘The Six Triple Eight’ Starring Kerry Washington Released

Buy Me A Coffee

Tyler Perry is about to drop a cinematic bombshell, and no, it’s not another Madea sequel! The debut teaser for The Six Triple Eight has arrived online, and it’s already making waves. Why? Because Kerry Washington is leading an all-star cast in a story that’s so epic, even Netflix had to clear its schedule.

Circle December 20 on your calendar (or just write it on your hand if you’re feeling spontaneous), because that’s when the movie hits Netflix. But if you’re a true cinema hipster, you can catch it in select theaters starting December 6, where you’ll probably tell your friends, “Oh, I saw it before it was cool.”

This isn’t just any war film. Oh no. It’s inspired by the real superhero squad of WWII: the first and only Women’s Army Corps unit of color to serve overseas. No capes, but plenty of grit. These ladies faced racism, sexism, and probably some serious coffee shortages, yet still managed to serve with honor and distinction. Their mission? Delivering mail. But don’t let that fool you—when you’re battling both the enemy and systemic injustice, getting letters to the right people is basically the superhero version of defusing bombs.

Written and directed by Tyler Perry, this movie is what happens when you combine historical drama with the power of Perry’s creative mind. Kerry Washington stars as Major Charity Adams, the boss lady of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion. You better believe that not one letter went undelivered under her command.

And the cast? Oh, it’s packed tighter than your aunt’s potato salad at the family reunion. We’ve got Ebony Obsidian, Milauna Jackson, Kylie Jefferson, Shanice Shantay, Sarah Jeffery, Pepi Sonuga, Moriah Brown, Jeanté Godlock—and, because this movie isn’t playing around, Susan Sarandon, Dean Norris, Sam Waterston, and THE Oprah Winfrey. That’s right, Oprah’s in it. Prepare yourself for some major feels.

The film is based on the article “Fighting A Two-Front War” by Kevin M. Hymel. But wait, there’s more! Diane Warren wrote an original song for the film, because what’s a historical war movie without a power ballad? And guess who’s performing it? None other than H.E.R. Oh, and the legendary Debbie Allen handled the choreography, because even delivering mail deserves some serious dance moves.

So, get ready for The Six Triple Eight, where the stakes are high, the mail is sacred, and Kerry Washington is about to give us all a history lesson—with style.
