Marlow Studios launches its headquarters

Marlow Studios has acquired a prime commercial building to serve as the early HQ for the landmark £1bn project – delivering one of Europe’s most advanced creative campuses for film, television and digital production.

The new 12-acre site provides 0.23 million square feet of high-grade office space, adjacent to the 90-acre development site granted planning consent by the UK Government in Q4 2025. The flagship facilities at Marlow Studios will strengthen the UK’s position as a global leader in the sector.

Robert Laycock, CEO of Marlow Studios, said:

"As the creative media market increasingly turns to the UK to deliver projects of all scales and formats for global audiences, Marlow Studios’ investment approach is to meet growing demand for premium infrastructure and production facilities. The depth of talent here, and its capacity for leadership across film, television and technology, is exceptional. Our conviction is to build around those people to meet global demand.

“The addition of the Marlow International site to our portfolio supports that vision - both as a base for our expanding team and to accommodate inbound productions requiring office and pre-production space, even ahead of work commencing on the main site.

“Further announcements will follow as the project progresses through 2026."

Dear Sir/Madam,

Re: Marlow Film Studios (ref: 22/06443/FULEA).

I am writing in support of the application for Marlow Film Studios, a film studio planned on former landfill next to the A404, within the parish of Little Marlow.

I was really encouraged to read of the latest polling across Bucks showing overwhelming support for the project and for the jobs and economic development that come with it. The opinions of residents across Bucks matters, particularly those who live and work close to the Studio site.

This is a decision that Bucks councillors should be making on behalf our children, and their future. This is a decision about providing them with greater opportunity and wider chances. The next generation urgently need opportunities for careers that keep them within Bucks and allow our towns and villages to flourish as homes for all ages.

Providing sustainable jobs and careers is vital for the long-term prosperity of any community. The growth of the British film industry over recent years has been extraordinary and its future growth is backed by all the political parties. Marlow Film Studios intends to be the future centre for British filmmaking. The fact that we have an industry of this global standing planning to build studios in our county is something we should be proud of. Many of today’s young people want to work in the creative sector.

I am particularly excited at the possibilities it provides for our disadvantaged communities. For local people, the Studios will also be close to one of the more culturally diverse parts of Buckinghamshire. The Studios’ partnerships with institutions such as Buckinghamshire College Group will provide access points to the creative economy for an under-represented diverse community as part of Wycombe’s regeneration challenge.

I understand that all new developments present challenges. But I believe that considerable efforts are being made to manage these. I am pleased to note the financing of the road traffic improvements on the Westhorpe roundabout, the provision of new bus routes, the care being put into providing accessible parkland for residents and a biodiverse environment.

The Studios are being built on a former gravel pit, on land that is no longer suitable for agriculture use. I understand that any decision on Green Belt land needs to illustrate clear benefits to the community that outweigh the impact. Overall, I believe the strong benefits robustly and significantly outweigh the negative considerations, and so I strongly support the planning application.
