We all know how stunning our state is but what you may not know is that we’re actually star-struck. We even have our own Hollywood Hill (we’re looking at you, Paris Mountain). South Carolina has been the backdrop for some pretty famous movies, and we rounded up a few of our faves.

🎬 Cold Mountain (Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, Renee Zellweger): Scenes featuring College of Charleston + the Cypress Gardens near Moncks Corner.

🎬 Leatherheads (George Clooney, Renée Zellweger, and John Krasinski): Scenes from Leatherheads were filmed in Greenville, downtown Greer, Travelers Rest + Anderson. You can read specifics here.
