1223 N 23RD ST, WILMINGTON, NC, 28405

Cinespace Wilmington is the largest full-service studio complex on the U.S. East Coast outside California, with 10 column-free soundstages totaling roughly 250,000 sq ft of production space, including stages with indoor water tanks (Stage 4 and a 60'x60' tank on the 37,500 sq ft Stage 10). Originally built by Dino De Laurentiis as DEG Studios in 1984, it became EUE/Screen Gems in the 1990s before Cinespace Studios acquired the Wilmington and Atlanta facilities in September 2023. The campus offers turnkey production offices, mill/paint/FX shops, wardrobe, set-dec and prop warehouses, base camps, and ADR services, plus the in-house Cinespace Lighting grip-and-electric operation. It has hosted more than 400 film and television productions for Marvel, Amazon, Netflix, Searchlight, Blumhouse, Warner Bros., HBO and others. It sits four miles from Wilmington City Hall and one mile from Wilmington International Airport.
