Tyler Perry has blacklisted Meghan Markle from his Atlanta studios. According to a report by The Source, Markle had been in contact with Perry multiple times in an attempt to get permission to use some of his studios for free to shoot films that she wrote herself. Perry reportedly declined her request, and he has since blacklisted her from his studios.
The report claims that Perry was offended by Markle's audacity to ask for free use of his studios. He is said to have felt that Markle was "white hot fire" and "too good" to be in a Tyler Perry production. Perry is also said to have been upset by Markle's exploitation of his mother, who was a huge fan of Princess Diana.
Markle's blacklisting from Perry's studios is a significant setback for her career. Perry is one of the most successful producers in Hollywood, and his studios are used to shoot major films and television shows. Markle's inability to use Perry's studios will make it more difficult for her to produce her own films.
The blacklisting is also a sign of the declining fortunes of Markle's career. Since leaving the royal family in 2020, Markle has struggled to find success in Hollywood. Her Netflix series, "Pearl," was canceled after just one season, and her Spotify podcast, "Archetypes," has yet to be released.
The blacklisting from Perry's studios is a further blow to Markle's career. It is unclear what she will do next, but it is clear that her Hollywood dream is in jeopardy.
