Things move quickly when you own your own studio and write/direct/ produce/star in your films. Tyler Perry announced his latest project, Single Moms Club, back in October. Since the, Bridesmaids’ Wendy McLendon-Covey has signed on and now Perry has locked in the rest of the cast, with Terry Crews, Nia Long, Amy Smart, Eddie Cibrian, William Levy, Zulay Henaco and Ryan Eggold all on for roles.

Not much has been announced about the film’s plot, though we do know it focuses on a group of single mothers (with that title? Who’d guess?) from different walks of life who must band together after an incident at their kids’ school.

While we’re pretty sure the incident will either be a problem teacher or possibly a death during a particularly tough game of dodgeball, we’ll all have to wait and see what actually happens. Perry has just kicked off shooting the movie.

Perry, who will next be seen acting in Alex Cross on November 30, already has one other film headed for cinemas. Temptation: Confessions Of A Marriage Counselor hits US screens on March 29 but doesn’t have a set date for the UK yet.
