In August, “Meet the Browns” — the third film in Tyler Perry’s “Madea” series — will debut on free streaming service Plex. Alongside Perry, the film stars Angela Bassett and Rick Fox. In the movie, a single Chicago mom (Bassett) and her kids attend the funeral of her unknown father — and meet an extended family they never knew.
