Tyler Perry Studios, the first ever fully black-owned film
studio has been officially opened.
The $250m studios on some 330 acres of former U.S. Army
base Fort McPherson which was bought for $30 million, has a replica White House
which is being used in the production of BET show “The Oval.”
It also has trailer
parks, a hospital set, a mock jumbo jet, an airport terminal, a trailer park,
and even a suburban subdivision. In the works elsewhere is a half-mile,
six-lane highway Perry is building for car chases and drag races, as well as
backlots that could be used for scenes based in urban Europe.
