Georgia has had a steady month on film and TV with 36 active projects going on right now, about the same as October and down from 43 a year ago.

Since the heartbeat bill passed in May, I’ve been tracking how much business the state is getting. Most sound stages appear to be full.

Though there was talk of a boycott of Georgia in May by some Hollywood types led by actress Alyssa Milano, state officials and employees have pushed for producers to “stay and fight.” So far, they are. It helps that a federal judge placed an injunction on the restrictive abortion bill so it isn’t going into effect in 2020.

The downside of political uncertainty: major production companies such as Netflix and Sony are less willing to sign longer-term contracts with local studios.

The fall appears to be a little slower in terms of number of projects from 2018 but there are more sizable films producing right now vs. a year ago including Eddie Murphy’s “Coming 2 America,” Chris Pratt’s “Ghost Draft,” Margot Robbie’s “Suicide Squad 2,” Anthony Mackie’s “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” and Jennifer Hudson’s “Respect.” Newest in town is a comedy starring Vince Vaughn called “Freaky Friday the 13th.”

A year ago, the biggest projects were HBO’s well-received “Watchmen” and “Dr. Sleep,” which just debuted last weekend to okay reviews and less-than-rousing box office totals.

Of the 36 active projects, 16 are scripted TV shows (up from 15 a month ago), 11 are feature films (same as October) and nine are a mix of reality TV and unscripted fare (same as October).

Ten projects started up the past month while nine wrapped up, some new, some returning
