ATLANTA — The film industry spent $4.1 billion in Georgia during the last fiscal year, Gov. Brian Kemp announced.
That was below the $4.4 billion film and television productions spent in the Peach State during the previous fiscal year but above the $4.0 billion in direct spending the industry posted in fiscal 2021 as Georgia began to emerge from the pandemic.
