All large-scale, major film studios in the UK have forged strong links or secured leases with renowned film production companies. Here are some examples:
- Pinewood Studios (2,156,234 sq ft) – Walt Disney Studios
- Shepperton Studios (1,153,864 sq ft) – Netflix & Amazon Prime Video
- Leavesden (560,700 sq ft) – Warner Bros
- Waltham Cross Studios (470,000 sq ft) – Sunset Studios
- Shinfield Studios (442,000 sq ft) – Walt Disney Studios
- Titanic Studios (423,488 sq ft) – Paramount Pictures
- Elstree Studios (227,644 sq ft) – Sky
What about Marlow Film Studio (659,268 sq ft, as per its planning application)? Literally no-one.
