Overview
- Hungary has implemented a constitutional amendment banning LGBTQ+ public gatherings, enforced through facial recognition technology and fines.
- The amendment is the latest in a series of anti-LGBTQ+ measures, including restrictions on same-sex adoption and depictions of homosexuality to minors.
- Hollywood studios with ongoing productions in Hungary, such as 'Dune: Part Three,' have not halted filming or made public statements about the new law.
- Hungary remains a top filming destination due to its 30% upfront production tax credit and experienced local crews, making relocations costly for studios.
- Industry insiders suggest future Hollywood projects may avoid Hungary if conditions worsen, but current productions are unlikely to move.
