48 films selected for California film and TV tax credit program
The latest round of California's film and television tax credit program will provide government incentives to 48 upcoming projects, according to the California Film Commission. The slate, which includes both major studio projects and independent films, is expected to employ more than 6,500 cast and crew members and 32,000 background performers, measured in days worked. These projects will pay more than $302 million in wages for California workers, the commission said Monday. The projects are estimated to collectively generate $664 million in total spending throughout the state. Of the awarded films, five are features from major studios, including the sequel to Sony Pictures' 'One of Them Days,' which is expected to receive almost $8 million in tax credits and spend $39 million in qualified expenditures. An untitled Netflix project, which is set to film in California for 110 days, is expected to receive the largest credit of the slate at $20 million. The rest of the awarded projects are independent, with 37 of them operating on budgets under $10 million. More than half of the films will be shot in the Los Angeles area, the commission said. 'California didn't earn its role as the heart of the entertainment world by accident — it was built over generations by skilled workers and creative talent pushing boundaries,' Gov. Gavin Newsom said in a statement. 'Today's awards help ensure this legacy continues, keeping cameras rolling here at home, supporting thousands of crew members behind the scenes and boosting local economies that depend on a strong film and television industry.' The announcement comes as the industry has expressed concern over the amount of production fleeing California in favor of other states or countries that offer more attractive tax incentives. Late last year, Newsom proposed an increase to the state's film and TV tax credit, upping the annual tax credit allocation from $330 million to $750 million in an attempt to keep production in California. In March, the commission announced it was selecting a record 51 projects with tax incentives, marking the most amount of awarded films in a single application window.

When is '28 Years Later' coming to streaming? Here's our best guess
Released decades after the second movie, "28 Years Later" sees original "28 Days Later" director Danny Boyle reuniting with writer Alex Garland to deliver a thrilling third installment of the post-apocalyptic horror saga. The first in a planned trilogy, "28 Years Later" whisks us away to a remote community of British survivors living on the island of Lindisfarne. There, we meet 12-year-old Spike (Alfie Williams), who lives with his father, Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and ailing mother, Isla (Jodie Comer). In the film, Spike embarks on a mission onto the British mainland — which is still under quarantine and overrun by terrifying monsters infected with the Rage Virus — and this journey brings him up close with the horrors that lie beyond the comforts of his humble Northumbrian home. It's a thrilling and frequently surprising watch, and has seriously impressed viewers to date (it's 89% on Rotten Tomatoes) and made a splash at the box office. Despite releasing just days ago at the time of writing, it's already raked in $60 million worldwide (via BoxOfficeMojo). That's great news for the franchise, though it does mean we'll probably be waiting a little while for the as-yet-unconfirmed "28 Years Later" streaming date. Nevertheless, if you're waiting to watch the movie from the comfort of your own home, here's my best guess at when "28 Years Later" might come to streaming services. Currently, the only way to watch "28 Years Later" is by seeing it on the big screen. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. It recently opened in theaters on Friday, June 20, so we'll be waiting a while before it comes to streaming. And unless Sony Pictures' release strategy changes, it'll first arrive on premium video-on-demand (PVOD) storefronts. At the time of writing, we don't have a confirmed "28 Years Later" streaming date, nor a PVOD digital release date, either. However, that won't prevent me from guessing when the post-apocalyptic sequel might come to streaming. We know that Sony Pictures releases come to Netflix, so that's where "28 Years Later" will eventually make its streaming debut. And while we don't have an official date, I'd guess that "28 Years Later" will come to streaming services at some point this fall, likely September or October. That's based on the average 3-4 month wait for Sony's movies to come to streaming. For example, "Venom: The Last Dance" came to Netflix on February 25, four months after its theatrical release in October 2024. Similarly, "Kraven the Hunter" came to the streamer in March 2025, three months after its theatrical release, and we waited four months for "Saturday Night" to land on Netflix back in January. Of course, this is still just a guess, but as soon as we get an official "28 Years Later" streaming date, we'll be sure to share it here, so keep checking back. And if you're looking for Netflix recommendations while you wait for "28 Years Later" to arrive, be sure to check out our round-up of the best Netflix movies you should be streaming right now.
