How to get cast in Tyler Perry’s upcoming Netflix feature film, ‘Joy Ridge’ as it films in Atlanta, Georgia.
Tyler Perry, the prolific filmmaker and creator, is gearing up to direct his next project, “Joy Ridge,” with filming set to commence next month in Atlanta, Georgia. This new venture tells the story of Joy, a successful fashion designer who yearns for a marriage proposal during the Christmas season. However, her life takes an unexpected turn in the Wyoming mountains, leading her to discover what she truly needs.
Key Takeaways:
- Tyler Perry will direct “Joy Ridge,” based on his own screenplay.
- The story revolves around Joy, a fashion designer seeking love and fulfillment.

“Joy Ridge” unfolds as Joy faces heartbreak when the man she loves sees her only as a friend and introduces her to his fiancée. Amid a snowstorm, she leaves his ranch, only to be rescued by a handsome stranger who becomes more than just a passerby in her life.
In addition to “Joy Ridge,” Perry is busy with a slate of films for Netflix, including “Joe’s College Road Trip,” a story about a grandson learning about his ancestors’ history during a road trip with his grandfather, and “Madea’s Destination Wedding,” the thirteenth movie in the “Madea” cinematic universe. Perry’s collaboration with Netflix has already produced notable films like “A Fall from Grace,” “A Madea Homecoming,” and “A Jazzman’s Blues.”
Moreover, Perry’s partnership with Amazon Studios is yielding two films: “Black, White & Blue” starring Kat Graham and “Divorce in The Black” starring Meagan Good. Atlanta, home to Tyler Perry Studios, serves as the principal location for “Joy Ridge” and many of Perry’s other projects.
