Hollywood comes to Hertfordshire with plans for a £700m film and TV studio, ‘a vote of confidence in the UK’s booming film and TV industry’ and setting standards in energy efficiency and biodiversity.
This world-class studio facility for Hudson Pacific Properties and Blackstone brings the first Sunset Studios operation outside of the US to the UK and will create more than 4,500 new jobs in Hertfordshire.
Oliver Dowden, Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport said, “This new studio is yet another vote of confidence in the UK’s booming film and TV industry… boosting the local economy and backing our world-class creatives to make the next Bond blockbuster or bingeworthy box set.”
Across 91 acres, the masterplan aims to achieve BREEAM Excellent across 21 sound stages, and has one of the largest photovoltaic installations in the UK providing significant benefits for both the environment and the economy.
