The Palmetto State has stars in its eyes.
Film industry professionals Thursday celebrated a new law they think will expand their industry in South Carolina.
Richard Futch, former casting director for the TV show “Army Wives,” said the Film Rebates Bill, which was passed by the Legislature and signed into law last week by Gov. Nikki Haley, makes South Carolina competitive with neighboring Georgia and North Carolina.
The new law, which provides incentives to filmmakers, will bring more movie and TV productions to the state, he said.
