EUE/Screen Gems Studios (Georgia) is a film and television production complex located in Atlanta, Georgia that serves as a regional hub for motion picture and television work in the southeastern United States. The studio supports productions from major companies such as Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros., Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Netflix and Amazon Studios, and functions alongside institutions like the Pinewood Studios Group and Tyler Perry Studios. It sits within a production ecosystem that includes Georgia Film, Music & Digital Entertainment Office, SAG-AFTRA, Directors Guild of America, Producers Guild of America, and regional unions.

History

The site was developed amid the boom in film production that followed legislative action by the Georgia General Assembly and incentives advocated by the Georgia Department of Economic Development and the Georgia Film Office, which echoed efforts by jurisdictions such as Louisiana and New Mexico. Early planning involved collaboration with firms experienced at converting industrial properties into production campuses, similar to redevelopments at Tyler Perry Studios, Pinewood Atlanta Studios, and Asheville Studios. The studio's launch attracted executives from Sony Pictures Entertainment, Screen Gems parents, and financiers familiar with projects produced by Miramax and Lionsgate. Over time the facility hosted crews with ties to productions overseen by showrunners and producers such as Shonda Rhimes, Ryan Murphy, J.J. Abrams, Kevin Feige, and Ava DuVernay.

The complex comprises multiple soundstages, production offices, and technical support spaces engineered to accommodate workflows used by companies like Industrial Light & Magic, Weta Digital, Framestore, PSYOP and postproduction houses such as Deluxe Entertainment Services Group and Technicolor. Stages range in size comparable to those at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden and include mill space for set construction staffed by crews who have worked on films for Marvel Studios, DC Studios, Lucasfilm, Skydance Media, and Legendary Pictures. The site includes grip and electric shops compatible with equipment from suppliers like ARRI, Panavision, Red Digital Cinema, and Aaton and offers storage and logistics services used by production managers with experience on The Walking Dead, Stranger Things, Black Panther, and The Hunger Games franchises. Connectivity and postproduction workflows support color grading tools by DaVinci Resolve vendors and sound stages built to standards used by Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences-recognized facilities.

The studio has hosted a mix of feature films, television series, streaming programs and commercials. Productions include projects associated with Netflix series showrunners, HBO dramas, CBS procedurals, ABC pilots, NBC series and independent films distributed by A24 and Oscilloscope Laboratories. Crews based at the complex have long records with franchises like Marvel Cinematic Universe, DC Extended Universe, Star Wars, James Bond, and with directors including Christopher Nolan, Greta Gerwig, Steven Spielberg, and Martin Scorsese who have used Georgia facilities. The site has supported episodes of episodic dramas comparable to The Walking Dead and period productions akin to The Crown through art department capabilities and wardrobe services that have served costume designers from Costume Designers Guild projects.

The studio contributes to regional labor markets by employing local and migrant talent represented by IATSE, Teamsters, United Scenic Artists, Local 600 (IATSE) cinematographers, and background actors registered with SAG-AFTRA. Its presence complements Georgia’s incentive-driven sector alongside employers such as Tyler Perry Studios, Pinewood Studios Atlanta and postproduction firms including Ironhead Studio and Company 3. Economic analyses by entities like the Georgia Department of Economic Development and municipal planning bodies estimate downstream activity in hospitality chains such as Hyatt, Marriott International, Hilton Worldwide, and catering vendors, plus impacts on transportation firms including CSX Transportation and Delta Air Lines. The studio supports vocational partnerships with institutions like Georgia State University, Savannah College of Art and Design, University of Georgia, and Kennesaw State University for talent pipelines.

The facility operates under the ownership umbrella of EUE/Screen Gems, a production-services company with historical roots in projects for Sony Pictures Entertainment, Screen Gems distribution, and partnerships with financiers tied to Goldman Sachs-style media investments. Management teams include executives with backgrounds at 123rf, Endeavor, Creative Artists Agency, and studio operations veterans from Warner Bros. and Paramount Pictures. Business relationships extend to leasing partners, regional development agencies like the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, and service suppliers including Cinelease Studios, Verizon Business and Comcast.

Productions utilizing the studio have been part of works nominated for and awarded honors from the Academy Awards, Primetime Emmy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, BAFTA Awards, Critics' Choice Television Awards, Screen Actors Guild Awards, Producers Guild Awards, and technical accolades from bodies like the Visual Effects Society and the Cinema Audio Society. The facility’s crews have earned credits that contributed to awards for cinematography by members of ASC, sound awards recognized by MPSE, and production design prizes associated with the Art Directors Guild.
