NSW will be the primary filming location for screen legend Mel Gibson’s next movie blockbuster, Hacksaw Ridge.
This film will generate around 720 jobs and more than $26 million in production expenditure across central Sydney, Western Sydney and regional NSW.
Deputy Premier and Minister for the Arts Troy Grant said NSW continues to attract high quality international films that boost our economy and love of the arts.
“We have an iconic capital city, breathtaking regions and a strong and talented screen industry that all help make our state the premier film destination in Australia.
Directed by Mel Gibson, Hacksaw Ridge will begin pre-production this month and is expected to be completed in the second half of 2016. It will star Andrew Garfield (The Amazing Spider-Man, The Social Network) with screenplay by Australian writer Andrew Knight and Pulitzer Prize Winner, Robert Schenkkan.
