40 College Campuses That Starred In Popular Movies
33. Berry College (Mount Berry, Georgia)
Berry College, with the largest contiguous campus in the world (over 27,000 acres), offers cinematic breadth few schools can rival. Its grand stone buildings and sweeping landscapes made it the perfect double for Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters in X-Men: First Class. The Ford Complex, with its ivy-covered Gothic revival structures and iconic reflecting pools, lends itself beautifully to fantasy, period, and academic genres alike. The campus’s versatility, scale, and storybook aesthetic have made it a rising star in the world of film—especially for productions seeking drama, grandeur, and natural beauty in equal measure.
