October 5, 2019 was an memorable day for Mr, Tyler Perry. He's truly an inspiration, a LEGEND.. he is the GOAT, PERIODDDDDD! This is the FIRST ever black fully owned studio lot and bigger than Disney, Warner Brothers, Paramount, Fox, and Sony COMBINED with space left over! This mini town is 330 acres with every set you can think of. This land was once worked by slaves and turned into an army base and NOW it's owned and operated by a BLACK man.Let's not forget he created his own walk of fame for the actresses/actors who've played in his projects and all of your favorite celebrities was in attendance.
