Netflix, the video-streaming company, said on Thursday that it would spend up to $100 million to expand its presence in New York City by creating a production hub in Brooklyn that would include six soundstages.

The company already has been producing some of its most popular shows, including “Orange Is the New Black” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt,” in Queens and Brooklyn.

The proposed expansion would build on New York’s growing role in the booming business of film and television production. Soundstages have opened up in previously industrial sections of Brooklyn and Queens, and even on Staten Island, fueled in part by the state’s program of production credits, which offers savings on production costs incurred in New York.

“New York has created a film-friendly environment that’s home to some of the best creative and executive talent in the world, and we’re excited to provide a place for them at Netflix with our production hub,” said Jason Hariton, the company’s director of worldwide studio operations and real estate.
