I believe here they're talking about Georgia in the United States.
- punchingpeople 8y agoJust realized that, my mistake. Every time I hear Georgia I immediately think about the country in the Caucasus. I am half asleep right now. Georgia, USA, could be interesting too, although the only thing I know about it is they film "The Walking Dead" there.
- vignesh_m 8y agoive seen a few shows filmed there, they have a made in Georgia segment at the credits
- Cyph0n 8y agoGeorgia has become a hotspot for filming movie and TV shows. They probably have a ton of incentives for studios, but I haven't looked into it.
- centicosm 8y ago20% Tax credit with an additional 10% if they include that filmed in Georgia logo in the credits. There may be more but that is the big one I am aware of.
- jcater 8y agoYeah, the Atlanta area is home to a lot of movies and TV shows at this point. There's even a huge movie studio built south of Atlanta (Pinewood, opened in 2014). Most of the recent Marvell movies were shot here. Recent films shot in Georgia include: Godzilla: King of Monsters, the Ant Man movies, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, Black Panther, Pitch Perfect 3, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down the White House and Spider-Man: Homecoming. Some television shows shot here: Stranger Things, Ozark, The Walking Dead, MacGuyver and Atlanta. There's definitely a booming production industry in the Atlanta area.
- Milner08 8y agoWait they called their studios Pinewood? As in the same name as the famous British studios where they film James Bond and stuff? Come on Atlanta get your own studio name! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinewood_Studios https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinewood_Studios
- jcater 8y agoIt's the same group. Pinewood Atlanta was their first US location. There's also a Pinewood Malaysia.
- btrautsc 8y agoArcher.
- Jtsummers 8y agoWith Atlanta being home of Cartoon Network (and most of Turner's stuffs like TBS, CNN, etc.), there's been a huge animation scene there for 20+ years.
- athenot 8y agoOf course this is all due to a financial/tax incentive for movie studios. But it seems to have produced a volume of productions: in 2016 more feature films were produced in GA than in CA. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/feature-film-production-georgia-outpaced-california-last-year-study-says-1006912 https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/feature-film-producti...
- charlescearl 8y agoWell there’s also Stranger Things!
- privacypoller 8y agodon't forget Archer - though technically not "filmed"
- ringbugger 8y agoWait... that Georgia has a coast too? I though they were surrounded by Russia. Just took a look at a map. Everything I thought I knew was wrong.
- rikkus 8y agoFor a few years the 'captcha' on my site asked, 'What's the capital of Georgia?' I had a couple of irate emails from people entering 'Atlanta' and wondering why it didn't accept their answer.
- echelon 8y agoGeorgia the state's population outnumbers Georgia the country's, and Atlanta is considered a world city. Tons of movies and tv shows are filmed in Atlanta (Marvel, dozens of Netflix shows, etc.), and the city is a major music hub. If Atlanta lands HQ2, you can expect for it to take off in the tech scene too.
- philg_jr 8y agoThe studio that makes Archer is also based in Atlanta.
