The level of foreign production activity in Australia is influenced by a range of factors inlcuding the Australian dollar, and government rebates and incentives. The overall trend for foreign spend in Australia, on both shoot and PDV-only titles, has been upwards, as has the proportion of total Australian expenditure.
In 2022/23, spend on foreign theatrical features shooting in Australia reached an all time high of $612 million, driven by a slate of big-budget US titles.
