As the entertainment industry continues to navigate shifting viewer habits, streaming demands, and the aftermath of recent labor strikes, Georgia remains a consistent presence in film and television production. According to the Georgia Film Office, more than a dozen projects are currently in production across the state, spanning scripted series, documentaries, and reality shows.
This summer’s slate includes productions from major networks and platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV+, Hulu, FOX, and MTV — a testament to the state’s broad appeal and infrastructure.
Among the notable titles in production:
- “Tulsa King” (Season 3), a Paramount+ crime drama starring Sylvester Stallone.
- “Sweet Magnolias” (Season 5) and “Free Bert” (Season 1), both filming for Netflix.
- “It’s Not Like That”, a new Amazon Prime Video series.
- A reimagining of “Cape Fear” for Apple TV+.
- “Reasonable Doubt” (Season 3) on Hulu.
Georgia’s enduring popularity among reality and unscripted series producers is also on display. Filming continues for long-running programs like “Love and Hip Hop Atlanta” (MTV/VH1), “Married to Medicine: Atlanta” (Bravo), and “7 Little Johnstons” (TLC/Discovery+). Meanwhile, FOX’s “Dish Nation” is back for its 13th season, and local public media outlet WABE is producing “Pivotal Moments,” a new reality series.
Other productions include holiday films like “Christmas Everyday” for Lifetime, documentaries such as “After Foster Care” and Netflix’s untitled Mica Miller project, and game shows like “Scrambled Up” and “The Perfect Line.”
The steady level of activity reflects Georgia’s ongoing role as a national production hub. While not immune to broader industry challenges, the state’s film and television sector has shown resilience. In fiscal year 2023, productions spent more than $4.1 billion in Georgia, according to the Georgia Department of Economic Development. This spending supports a wide range of local jobs and small businesses, from technical crews and post-production teams to catering services and transportation providers.
Georgia’s appeal to filmmakers is rooted in a combination of seasoned crews, established soundstages, and a competitive film tax incentive. While market uncertainty has prompted some studios to scale back or re-evaluate projects nationwide, Georgia has continued to attract both returning series and new investments.
As the industry continues to evolve, Georgia’s position as a key player in domestic production remains steady — not just as a filming location, but as a reliable partner in content creation.
