Watch Tyler Perry Get Serious In Madea's Alex Cross Trailer

6/26/2012 9:00 PM ET | Filed under: Film Flickers • Tyler Perry

When Tyler Perry isn't busy impersonating A Mad Black Woman, he's actually a pretty convincing action star!

The actor, writer and director is leaping from his Madea movies into the world of crime this fall. He's playing the titular character in Alex Cross, an adaptation of the James Patterson novels which follow a Washington D.C. detective as he solves impossible crimes.

In the October 19 release, he's after a cray cray Matthew Fox who loves inflicting pain on people — both in public and the octagon.

Watch the trailer (above) to get a feel for the upcoming action thriller and let us know if U think it looks good!

I don't see why Idris Alba couldn't be in this movie.
Tyler is fine and he is a decent actor, but I saw Idris in Prometheus, so he could have done action.
Matthew Fox is unrecognizable. Maybe he went crazy making this movie.

Miley Cyrus Insists Alcohol Is 'Way More Dangerous' Than Weed! Shares Her New Priorities As An Adult & Artist!

Perhaps Amanda Bynes would have been better off giving Miley Cyrus her bong!

The We Can’t Stop singer interviewed with Rolling Stone magazine for their July 4th issue, and revealed her fairly liberal thoughts on drugs and alcohol.

Given her stoner reputation, we’re not totally surprised. Though, when asked to clarify her penchant for weed, she said:

"You can't ask someone that and expect them to say yes... I did a song with Snoop Dogg called 'Ashtrays and Heartbreaks,' so people can put it together for themselves."

That sounds fairly straightforward to us. Mileybird then went ahead to state that she thinks there are things much, much worse than a little bit of the green stuff:

"I think alcohol is way more dangerous than marijuana -- people can be mad at me for saying that, but I don't care... I've seen a lot of people spiral down with alcohol, but I've never seen that happen with weed."

She added:

"As long as it isn't illegal, there are far more dangerous things. And it's legal in the state of California. So I'm happy to live in California, a place where you can be whoever you want to be."

Well, Miley, marijuana isn’t exactly legal in California unless you have a prescription, so we’re not entirely sure what you mean. But, okay...

As for her transition from Disney teen idol to mature pop star, she said:
