Listen Later

Marlon Wayans has been coming to Atlanta for 30 years—and now he's considering making it permanent. The comedian and actor discusses filming “Scary Movie 6” at Tyler Perry Studios, why Atlanta audiences supported his work before Georgia became a film hub, and what he learned about respect on set from Tom Hanks and Sandra Bullock. Wayans also shares how his brother Keenen's advice to "think like an industry" shaped his approach to building a creative empire—one he hopes to base in Atlanta.
