Peaky Blinders creator's Birmingham film studio to generate 760 jobs
, with a drama about Birmingham university students also in development, Knight said.
The development of existing warehouses and new "state-of-the-art" studio spaces is expected to be completed by 15 July, with the first filming planned for October."There's always been the opportunity for location shooting here but what's has been lacking is big interior studio space. It makes absolute business sense to not have to ship people in from London and Manchester and put them up overnight," he added.
"It will invite talent, business and projects from around the world to the beating heart of the city, to work with Birmingham's best," he added. The money is the result of an agreement between Birmingham City Council and Homes England, to pull together commercial land for the creative sector.
