“Tyler Perry is simply without rival as a creator of content that powerfully resonates with audiences across genres, formats, and platforms.”
Adding:
“Our programming partnership with Tyler – undoubtably the largest deal ever in the industry with a Black creator – has been hugely successful; delivering the number one series across all TV among Black audiences and five of the top 10 series on cable among Black viewers. We are thrilled to extend our extraordinary relationship with Tyler and to continue to be the home of the largest and most diverse collection of new Tyler Perry content for years to come.”
The news also comes as Perry’s $800 million studio expansion was put on hold “indefinitely” amid AI developments.
