My mom loves Tyler Perry’s movies
It’s a very highly artistic community ... You’ve got all these music producers and then you’ve got an acting community down there, too. Especially with Tyler Perry; he’s the biggest man in Hollywood that’s not in Hollywood. I like Atlanta a lot, too. I see what he sees as well.
We’ve got a lot of talent and we’re not a one-man show ... We have to give everybody a shot at touching the ball. Matt Arve can run, (and) Kendrick, Chase (Smith) does a great job, Kevin (Leiser) and we’ve got a 6-foot-5 tight end in Tyler Perry. We spread the ball.
Our bookers are still in conversations with reps for Tyler Perry, Whitney Houston and many others about appearing on the show.
Hollywood producer Tyler Perry revealed his brutal childhood past on his Web site Monday, writing on the site about his history with physical and emotional abuse, constant threats on his life and molestation at...
Tyler Perry’s House of Payne
When someone like Tyler Perry posts this kind of personal message it helps to free others
I have not yet had the privilege of working with Tyler, but we’re involved in this project together ... People are under the impression that it is a Tyler Perry film or an Oprah Winfrey film. It’s not. It is a Lee Daniels film. It is Lee Daniels Production. It is Lee Daniels who directed it.
The one thing I've noticed in Tyler Perry movies is that there is always an element of spirituality ... He really is unashamed to include the church or the teaching of the church in his movies as a standard for morality.
Tyler Perry has a special way of speaking to his audience, and it's unbelievable
Eight theatrical films, five No. 1 debuts , Lionsgate has a perpetually successful franchise in Tyler Perry ... He is the brand. He's a very rare example of a director-writer-actor who is completely synonymous with his work and with the success of his movies.
