The blueprint shows a sprawling complex with 12 sound stages spread across 292 acres. The first phase will focus on the 29-acre McAfee Zone, where they’ll build four stages. Two buildings will be 22,000 square feet each, while the combined-stage buildings will cover a whopping 83,555 square feet.

Each stage comes with large doors for moving big equipment. The plans also include workshop space and storage areas for props and gear.

While the site will run 24/7, most work will happen during weekdays from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. Staff will watch over gated entrances.
