The Secret Reason Why ‘The Walking Dead’ Filmed at Tyler Perry Studios

Date:

Did you know The Walking Dead filmed at Tyler Perry Studios?

Tyler Perry is on fire. His latest feature film, Boo! Madea’s Halloween not only beat Tom Cruise in the box office. Tyler Perry also beat Academy Award winning actor Tom Hanks in the box office.

But, other than Perry’s box office success, the creator of Madea has a thriving film studio business. Several months ago, we reported that AMC’s hit TV series The Walking Dead was filming at Tyler Perry Studios. But, up until this point, we did not know why AMC was filming at Tyler Perry Studios? Well, we finally know why.

Last night’s episode of The Walking Dead introduced a new character and location – King Ezekiel and The Kingdom. Those scenes were apparently filmed on location at Tyler Perry Studios.

According to The Walking Dead Wiki, in the comics “The Kingdom is a community of survivors found in Washington, D.C., who are based at a high school surrounded by a wall of buses and sheets of metal. It is the second biggest settlement after the Hilltop Colony.” According to the comic books Rick Grimes travels to meet with Ezekiel, a new character set to be introduced in season 7, in order to create a plan and strategy to defeat Negan and The Saviors. Ezekiel gives his word of support and the inhabitants of “The Kingdom” join forces with Rick. Over the course of several weeks, Rick and Ezekiel hold meetings to discuss how they will join forces and defeat Negan.”

We will have to wait and see what else will happen in Season 7 of The Walking Dead but until then, it is interesting to think that arguably the most powerful man in Hollywood, Tyler Perry, was hanging out with the cast with America’s most watched television series.
