New Orleans native and actor Anthony Mackie (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Avengers: Infinity War, The Banker) has purchased a 20-acre site in the city to build a new film studio.
The New Orleans East facility is on the Interstate at Read Boulevard, near the Little Woods neighbourhood. It is reportedly located in an area that is "seeking revitalisation", according to Carroll Morton, director of Film New Orleans.
Construction on the studio is expected to be completed and open for business early or mid next year. Once built it will become the eighth production facility in the city. Mackie's new production company, East Studios LLC, will be housed on the site.
