History

The Pinewood Group announced in April 2013 that its first film production facility in the United States, Pinewood Atlanta Studios, would be located south of Atlanta at a complex consisting of 280 ha (690 acres) in Fayette County, Georgia. The studio was a joint venture between Pinewood and River's Rock LLC, an independently managed trust of the Cathy family, founders of the Chick-fil-A fast-food chain. Pinewood Atlanta would feature at least five sound stages. The Pinewood Group was attracted to Georgia for the studio because of the state's film tax credit.[1]

The first production to film at the studio was Marvel Studios' film Ant-Man (2015), which began in September 2014.[2][3]

In 2016, the Pinewood Forest mixed-use complex was launched. Located across the street from the studio, it features homes along with plans for "a movie theater, restaurants, boutique hotels, retail and office space", built using environmentally friendly building materials.[4]

In August 2019, Pinewood sold their shares of Pinewood Atlanta to River's Rock LLC, with Frank Patterson expected to remain to run the studio.[5] At that point, Pinewood Atlanta had expanded to 700 acres and 18 sound stages and was considered the second largest film and television studio in North America.[6]

In October 2020, the studio was renamed Trilith Studios, while Pinewood Forest was renamed Trilith Development. Trilith was chosen as the studio's name as "a nod to our U.K. heritage” according to Patterson.[7]
