NEW MEXICO COULD END UP GETTING MORE FILM INDUSTRY BUSINESS AFTER THE GUBERNATORIAL RACE IN GEORGIA. WHEN THE RACE WAS CALLED LAST FRIDAY WITH REPUBLICAN BRIAN KEMP THE WINNER, CHANNEL 13 NEWS REPORTS THAT STATE COULD ACTUALLY LOSE ABOUT 9-MILLION DOLLARS FROM ITS ECONOMY, THANKS TO A PROMISE FROM GEORGIA’S SECRETARY OF STATE TO SIGN A RELIGIOUS FREEDOM BILL IF IT MAKES IT TO HIS DESK.
WHEN DISNEY PICTURES AND MARVEL ENTERTAINMENT THREATENED TO MOVE OUT OF GEORGIA, THE BILL WAS VETOED. WRITERS, DIRECTORS AND ACTORS STILL SAY THEY WANT TO MOVE OUT OF GEORGIA.
ALICIA KEYES WITH ALBUQUERQUE’S FILM OFFICE SAYS IF SOME OF THOSE PRODUCTIONS WANT TO SWITCH TO NEW MEXICO, THE STATE IS READY.
