These fall projects filmed in Georgia, promise to keep audiences captivated through early 2026
Film productions like these continue in Georgia as the industry around the globe shifts back onto its feet, and these are among the reasons why: Georgia’s best-in-class tax incentives; versatile locations; sophisticated state-of-the-art studios; top crews and workforce; state-wide Camera Ready Communities initiatives; world-class post-production resources.

Has the film industry stuttered and shifted domestically and abroad in recent years? Yes. Is Georgia’s film industry part of that picture? Yes. Is Georgia currently holding strong and hosting numerous productions? Yes.
Here are a few recent projects utilizing the Peach State:
- Hulu: “Murdaugh: Death in the Family” limited series. Produced at Assembly Atlanta in Doraville, the Southern crime series begins airing Oct. 15, 2025.
- Netflix: “Sweet Magnolias” series. Metro Atlanta’s Covington stands in for the fictional town of Serenity, South Carolina. The Season 5 finale, expected to air in 2026, was filmed on location in Savannah in mid-September.
- TLC: “7 Little Johnstons” reality series. Season 16 filmed in Forsyth over the summer, where the Johnston family resides. The season premieres in mid-October 2025.
- CBS: “Beyond the Gates” series. Season 2 of the soap opera — the first soap filmed outside New York or Los Angeles and the first new daytime soap in 25 years — filmed at Assembly Atlanta. The production, which features a predominantly Black cast, used multiple soundstages and backlot settings. Season 2 is expected to premiere in early 2026.
