Alabama is a popular filming location
According to The Bama Buzz, the film industry in Alabama is truly going places. Earlier in January, the movie The Shift was filmed in several locations in Birmingham, Alabama. Moreover, recently, production was announced on the movie Gunner, an action film starring Westworld’s Luke Hemsworth and Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman, also in the city.
Moreover, besides these two recent movie productions, Hulu returned to the Eastern Shore this month to film the mini-series, Love Fairhope. It is planned to capture Mardi Gras as part of the new series.
Brian Jones of the Alabama Film Office recently told The Bama Buzz that productions like Gunner and The Shift, which is currently filming in Birmingham, generate a great deal of attention for the area. However, it is more important to recognize the impact it has on the city’s economy, saying:
Hiring local people for crew, renting equipment, filling area hotel rooms and restaurants, is all money that goes directly into Birmingham’s economy.
