Georgia Lawmakers Move to Limit Nation’s Largest Film Incentive
Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer After studying the issue for the last eight months, Georgia lawmakers unveiled a proposal on Wednesday to limit the state’s lucrative film and TV tax incentive. Georgia has the largest production tax credit in the country, with $1.24 billion in credits certified last year. Over the last decade, soundstages have sprouted up around Atlanta and hundreds of productions have come to the state, including “May December,” “Black Panther,” “Stranger Things,” and “The Walking Dead.” Unlike in most other states, the Georgia credit is not capped.
