Netflix Pursues Radford Studio After Hackman Debt Default
Netflix is in talks to acquire Radford Studio Center after lenders led by Goldman Sachs repossessed the property from current owner Hackman Capital Partners following a debt default, according to Bloomberg. The potential purchase price has not been finalized and the deal has not closed, but it could be less than one-third of the lot’s US$1.85 billion 2021 sale price.
Debt Default and Market Context
Hackman Capital Partners defaulted on US$1.1 billion of debt after failing to refinance the studio last year. The default occurred as Los Angeles studio values have declined due to higher interest rates and a production slowdown following the 2023 writers and actors strikes, which reduced demand for studio space.
According to FilmLA, soundstage occupancy in Los Angeles fell to 62% in the first half of 2025, reflecting the broader strain on the studio real estate market.
