New projects from Reed Morano and Kristen Wiig have already pulled out of Georgia after Governor Brian Kemp signed the 'Heartbeat Bill.'

While the majority of Hollywood studios have remained quiet on Georgia’s “Heartbeat Bill,” Ted Sarandos is now threatening to pull Netflix’s multi-million dollar operations in the state should the anti-abortion bill become law. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp signed the controversial bill May 7, effectively outlawing abortions after six weeks beginning in the state in January 2020.

“We have many women working on productions in Georgia, whose rights, along with millions of others, will be severely restricted by this law,” Sarandos said in statement, first published by Variety. “It’s why we will work with the ACLU and others to fight it in court. Given the legislation has not yet been implemented, we’ll continue to film there — while also supporting partners and artists who choose not to. Should it ever come into effect, we’d rethink our entire investment in Georgia.

Kristin Wiig and her “Bridesmaids” creative partner Annie Mumolo similarly pulled their new comedy, “Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar,” from filming in Georgia. While other creatives such as Jordan Peele and J.J. Abrams’ have yet to pull out of filming in Georgia, the two men announced they would be donating ” 100% of [their] respective episodic fees” on their currently-in-production HBO series “Lovecraft County” to charities such as the ACLU of Georgia and Fair Right Georgia.
