Guillermo Del Toro

The studios was suited to one of the most complex movies that I have ever shot. The studio is suitable for small and medium sized projects, and both of them feel right at home at Pinewood.

David Cronenberg

Any Director would be happy to shoot at Pinewood. It’s a wonderful name with great associations and it’s a real Studio. It’s a community of filmmakers working together, it’s exciting.
