Tyler Perry’s Atlanta Studios Damaged by Fire

This isn’t the sort of hot property Tyler Perry wants on his hands.

A four-alarm fire ripped through the filmmaker’s Atlanta studio lot,

the home base for the various TV and movie projects on Perry’s increasingly packed producing and directing résumé, the

Atlanta Police Department confirmed Tuesday to E! News.

Of course, the most important thing is whether or not anybody

was on the premises at the time.


Per Atlanta’s Channel 2 Action

News, firefighters had managed to extinguish the flames by 10 p.m. but continued to battle various hot spots into the

night. At least one building on the 30-acre lot had partially collapsed, according to Atlanta Fire Rescue. Among the

structures with the 200,000-square-foot Tyler Perry Studios are a 400-seat theater and numerous sets and sound

stages.

There’s no word yet on what may have caused the blaze.

Perry opened the lot in October 2008. Last

year, Kim Kardashian was in town for her

role in The Marriage Counselor, and Perry hosted a fundraiser for President Barack Obama at the

studio in March.

His latest film, Madea’s Witness Protection, opens June 29.
