Facilities are packed out across 2025 by major US fare. Features include Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday, Mattel Films and Amazon MGM Studios’ Masters Of The Universe, plus Warner Bros’ Supergirl: Woman Of Tomorrow and Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights adaptation.
On the TV side, the Harry Potter series, Disney+ shows Tin Man and Star Wars: Ahsoka, and Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power season three for Amazon are all poised to shoot in the UK.
At the other end of the scale, drawn by the indie tax credit for films budgeted up to £15m, US indie producers are also increasingly looking to film in the UK. This is being driven in part by the rising cost of US production, not helped by complications surrounding tax credit systems run at state rather than federal level and the strength of the unions and guilds in the US versus the UK. But watch this space: an ‘America First’ Trump presidency could work to keep US production in the US.
