Thanks to an announcement made by Deadline on April 23, folks learned Tyler's new series She the People is set to debut on the site beginning May 22, 2025. What's more, the show will be split into two parts, with the latter half airing just a few months later on August 14, 2025. And to top off all of this incredible news, Tyler went on Instagram the next day to share a sneak peek trailer of what folks can expect from the new project.
"Politics are messy but she’s making it hilarious," read the caption on April 24. "Terri J. Vaughn stars in Tyler Perry’s SHE THE PEOPLE. The first 8 episodes drop May 22."
When fans learned of Tyler's latest TV venture, they bombarded him with excitement online about what's to come.

Now, this looks like something we'd love to tune in for! As for what fans can expect from She the People, Netflix's Tudum explained the show will star Terri J. Vaughn as a newly elected politician who's in over her head with responsibilities. What's more, she'll be trying to balance her work life with keeping her family in line as they all endure being in the spotlight for the first time.
Congrats, Tyler and we'll be on the lookout for this one!
