Celebrities love Atlanta because the city is the most progressive metropolitan area in the South. But more than that, it has some huge homes with huge properties and nice weather.

It’s also the movie capital in the United States. With more than 700 movie and TV projects in the last few years, the film industry has generated more than $9 billion for the state of Georgia.

There are so many movies filmed in Atlanta these days that it’s hard to keep up with it all. That’s why I suggest you subscribe to AtlantaFi.com to get all the freshest movie casting calls, celeb sightings and Atlanta happenings delivered to your inbox.
