Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden, the Hollywood studio's UK base that's currently hosting Tom Cruise-starrer All You Need Is Kill, has picked up post-production house De Lane Lea in a deal that will expand its offer to in-house productions and external clients. De Lane Lea, a 65-year-old company whose relationship with Warner Bros. stretches back to 1972's Deliverance, will be renamed Warner Bros. De Lane Lea. Its recent credits include Skyfall, Frankenweenie, Prometheus, Dark Shadows and the upcoming Alfonso Cuaron-directed Gravity with George Clooney and Sandra Bullock. At its base in London's Soho, the post house includes three re-recording stages, two ADR 
stages, 40 picture editing suites, a TV mixing stage, a transfer bay for the digital delivery, conversion and ingestion of picture and sound, a 37 seat screening room and a client lounge. Warner Bros. UK, Ireland and Spain chief Josh Berger called the acquisition, 'further evidence of our commitment to the UK film industry and the world-leading Greater London media cluster. Through its many years of operating, De Lane Lea has earned a power-house reputation for servicing tent-pole movies for us and other studios and, as we look to invest in the facility in the coming months and years, this standing can only grow even further.' Warner acquired the Leavesden site, home to all eight Harry Potter movies, in 2010 and officially opened it this summer.
