Netflix deal could boost all parts of New Mexico
While Albuquerque has been named as Netflix’s newest production hub, those in the industry say the benefits are likely to reach all parts of New Mexico.
In fact, the Santa Fe New Mexican reports Netflix executives have already visited Santa Fe to scout for space for a project next year.
Eric Witt, who leads the Santa Fe Film Office, says he had two phone calls earlier this week from producers within an hour of Netflix announced plans to purchase Albuquerque Studios and establish a production hub in the city.
The venture is projected to deliver $1 billion in production spending in New Mexico over the next decade and thousands of jobs.
