Star Wars: Episode VIII started filming at Pinewood in February and the company, which also owns Shepperton Studios, said the current financial year had started well.
Pinewood Studios, home to the Star Wars and James Bond films, expects to benefit from the pound’s fall since Britain voted to leave the EU.
Posting strong annual results, the Buckinghamshire-based film studio and production company said its international customers would gain from sterling’s fall.
Pre-tax profit rose 57% to £7.8m for the year to the end of March, when Pinewood was the base for the Bond film Spectre and Star Wars: Episode VII – the Force Awakens.
