Czech audiovisual industry turnover rose 14.5% in 2025, driven largely by international productions returning after expanded incentives.
Netflix’s The Empress has begun production on its third and final season in Prague, with filming set at Barrandov Studios and on location.
No casting announcements have been made, but the series is expected to have a tone similar to Netflix’s breakout romantic hit Bridgerton, according to Czech film industry officials.
The Empress is set to film scenes around Prague Castle this month at locations that were visited by the real-life Empress Elisabeth of Austria (Sisi).
