Berkshire's newest film and television studios have announced the completion date for the final stage of construction.
Based near Reading, Shinfield Studios is a state-of-the-art facility with 13 soundstages already available for TV and production companies.
Pictures taken by Tony McGinn by Drone show the near-completed version of the Berkshire-based studios.
They have now announced that as of early 2024, all 18 studios will be fully operational after over two and a half years of construction.
This includes two of the largest climate-controlled studios in the UK at 43,000 sq. ft each with a nine-acre backlot for filming.
Already, the studios have welcomed some of the world's largest media companies including Disney, Sony, and a variety of US streamers and production companies.
Nick Smith, Joint Managing Director, Shinfield Studios said: “Shinfield Studios now looks just like the plans we put to paper several years ago. Not only does it feel like a slice of Hollywood in Berkshire, it also offers producers everything that we promised.
“That’s to say a modern studio facility that has been carefully designed from the ground-up to meet all the needs of the most ambitious film and HETV productions. We really have considered every detail.”
