Katt Williams isn't waiting for Hollywood to change. He's building an alternative.
The comedian is developing Kemet Movie Works in Anniston, Alabama, with plans to create more opportunities for Black filmmakers, musicians, and storytellers. Inspired in part by Tyler Perry's studio model, the venture aims to expand creative freedom while opening doors for the next generation through a partnership with HBCU Miles College.
From calling out the industry to investing in a different future for it, Williams is making a case for what ownership can look like.
