4-Alarm Fire Currently Burning at Tyler Perry Studios - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

At least one building in filmmaker Tyler Perry’s studio complex in Atlanta is on fire, according to the AP. There are no immediate reports of injuries. The studio’s website says it includes a 200,000-square-foot studio, five sound stages and a 400-seat theater in southwest Atlanta. The prolific Perry has numerous film and TV projects in development, including such features as Madea’s Witness Protection (in which he stars, writes, directs and produces) and The Marriage Counselor, starring Kim Kardashian. Perry produces his projects at his Atlanta studio, so it’s unclear how, or if, the fire might impact his productions.
