Atlanta movie mogul Tyler Perry is no stranger to having his name in lights. The actor-writer-producer and filmmaker has been making successful movies for most of the century, but his work habits are what separates him.

Perry recently shared a glimpse of his prolific productivity on social media. In a video he uploaded to his accounts, he shows TV show scripts for some of his current productions he’s filming.

What’s Tyler Perry Filming? All Of These Scripts

The camera pans to show “The Haves & Have Nots,” “The Oval,” and other series that he has on TV or streaming services.

“I don’t know if you know this but most shows on television have a writer’s room … I have no writer’s room, nobody writes any of my work. I write it all.”

Perry says “Why am I telling you this? I wrote all of these scripts by myself in 2019. What’s my point? WORK ETHIC!”

Atlanta has become a movie mecca in recent years and Georgia has been a favorite location for TV productions since the state instituted generous tax breaks for film companies that agree to shoot locally. Projects from CBS, NBC, HBO, BET and more are slated to shoot in the metro area in 2018-19 and the foreseeable future.

With more than 700 movie and TV projects just in the last few years, the film industry has generated more than $9 billion for the state of Georgia.
