This is a more than 50% increase over 2018’s slate. Netflix has significantly increased its European production slate this year, with 221 projects, including 153 originals with a budget of well over $1bn. “It is all about confidence in the UK as a location for top quality productions.”

“Netflix’s decision is a real vote of confidence in the UK film and TV industry,” he said. Paul Golding, the chief executive of Shepperton’s parent Pinewood, home to the James Bond and Star Wars franchises, said that the deal represented a huge boost to the UK’s status as a major destination for film and TV production. The deal guarantees Netflix exclusive access to most of the facilities at Shepperton’s west London studios, including its 14 sound stages, from October. The US streaming service made more than 40 productions in the UK last year, including The Crown, Sex Education and Outlaw King, and has been searching for a long lease for an exclusive hub to ensure the boom in demand for studio space doesn’t hinder its plans to make TV shows and films without delays. Netflix has struck a deal to set up a permanent production base at Shepperton Studios, home to films from Alien to Mary Poppins Returns, as the company plans to spend more of its $13bn (£10.3bn) annual production budget in the UK.
