Apple TV to launch new film production ‘studio’ in Aston Clinton

Apple TV is set to take over two facilities within the Woodlands Enterprise Zone site, on Symmetry Park, in Aston Clinton.

The two units, spanning 170,000 sqft, are currently being prepped “to film some of its upcoming film and TV productions,” according to broadcaster TVB-Europe quoting The Telegraph.

Council leader Cllr Martin Tett also confirmed the move in his Enterprise Zone update, part of a wider economic development report.

The new film production facility, which is the result of a “hunt for studio locations in the UK” last year, TVB-Europe claims, will provide a huge space “for film studios and set workshops”.

A deal was struck in March this year, according to council documents.
