6. Tyler Perry
Like the little engine that could, Tyler Perry found a huge gap in the cinematic market and taken full advantage of it. As a producer, director and actor, Perry releases very cheaply made films (in particular, the Medea franchise) that rack in ten, twenty and thirty times the production costs. The quality of the films are negligible, but that doesn’t stop people from tuning in. From there he also acts in other movies, including Gone Girl, and has worked to produce some pretty successful television. All of Perry’s work has made it that he’s worth no less than $400 million.
