Marlow Studios has acquired a prime commercial building, which will serve as its head offices, on a 12-acre site with 0.23 million sq ft of office space.

The site is adjacent to the 90-acre development site which was granted planning consent by the Government in Q4 2025.

The facilities are expected to strengthen the UK’s position in the film and TV sector, with estimations of over 4,000 jobs within the industry being delivered once complete.

The development will also provide 18 soundstages, workspaces, innovation space, as well as a training and skills academy.

FilmLA published its annual report tracking studio capacity, with the UK now being shown as one of two principal centres of global production alongside LA, this development is expected to strengthen the position.

Comments

Robert Laycock, chief executive of Marlow Studios, said: “As the creative media market increasingly turns to the UK to deliver projects of all scales and formats for global audiences, Marlow Studios’ investment approach is to meet growing demand for premium infrastructure and production facilities.

“The depth of talent here, and its capacity for leadership across film, television and technology, is exceptional. Our conviction is to build around those people to meet global demand.

“The addition of the Marlow International site to our portfolio supports that vision- both as a base for our expanding team and to accommodate inbound productions requiring office and pre-production space, even ahead of work commencing on the main site.

“Further announcements will follow as the project progresses through 2026.”
