Georgia Maintains Status as Top Production Hub in the Face of Industry Slowdowns

Thanks to the tax incentives up to 30% and its location landscapes and facilities, Georgia has become the go-to state for film and TV production.

It’s located next to Trilith Studios, a production complex featuring 1,000 acres of purpose-built soundstages, offices and backlots that has hosted numerous high-profile films including Francis Ford Coppola’s “Megalopolis” and a long line of Marvel projects such as “Thunderbolts*” and “Captain America: Brave New World.” According to Kelsey Moore, executive director of the Georgia Screen Entertainment Coalition, the state is maintaining its status as a top production destination by “focus[ing] on the elements that we can control,” namely by making some important — if unsexy — tweaks to its incentive program. The state legislature subsequently stepped up and updated the language covering qualified distribution platforms, including adding FAST channels and removing LaserDiscs, and passed a standalone bill pushing back the sunset date of its postproduction credit to 2031.
