Films and television shows produced in Wilmington, North Carolina
Film and television shot/produced in Wilmington, North Carolina, are usually independent and/or low-budget films, mainly due to Wilmington being relatively more affordable than other cities to film in.
Other reasons for Wilmington's appeal include its local university (UNCW), its location on the coast, the presence of many historic buildings/sites, and vast swamps and waterways outside of Wilmington.[1] It has remained the largest film and television production area in North Carolina since the 1980s, when the first major productions started to be made in the region.[2]
Producer Dino De Laurentiis first came to Wilmington to film Firestarter, which was released in 1984.[3] He would later create De Laurentiis Entertainment Group (DEG), build a studio complex (operated by a subsidiary called the North Carolina Film Corporation[4]), and found its headquarters in Wilmington
