Tyler Perry says he knew if he was going to have Taraji P. Henson star in his latest film, he would have to work fast.

The writer-director filmed “Tyler Perry’s Acrimony,” his third collaboration with the actress, in a mere eight days.

Perry said it was easier to film the revenge thriller around Henson’s “Empire” shooting schedule because she comes in prepared for a role, and she’s especially good at playing bad characters.

“She’s a director’s dream,” he said at the film’s premiere earlier this week. “She knows exactly what you want. She knows exactly where to go.”

The actress plays a woman who becomes unhinged after being scorned by her ex-husband.
