Director of Development at Hammerlake Studios, Tom Dowling, has told Westmeath Topic this week that hundreds of acting roles as extras will become available to locals in the years ahead – that is, if the studio comes to fruition.
The exciting project took a step further along the process last week as Westmeath County Council recommended its approval. The last hurdle is a vote set for the Council chamber in September.
This vote will need 75% of councillors to vote in favour of changing land zoning at the studios site location.
