James Bond sailed the Grand Canal — the first yacht to do so in three centuries. Tom Cruise sprinted through candlelit arches at the Doge's Palace, a cameraman on a bicycle keeping pace beside him. And Roger Moore? He drove a gondola-hovercraft across that same square — with a horn to warn unsuspecting tourists.This is Venice. And every corner has a story Hollywood couldn't resist.
The Arconia is a long way from here. Production on Only Murders in the Building season 6 officially began in mid-May 2026, with Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez spotted filming on a bustling market street in central London.
Rome isn't just a backdrop. It's the entire point. Netflix's live-action Assassin's Creed series is filming entirely in Italy — based at Cinecittà Studios, where the production is expanding the existing ancient Rome backlot, including a replica of the Roman Forum.
West Georgia Street doesn't look like itself right now. Near the RBC Tower at 1055 West Georgia in downtown Vancouver, rusted cars covered in moss and heaps of debris have taken over the streets for The Last of Us season 3. Kaitlyn Dever — who joined the cast as Abby in season 2 — was spotted on set alongside Kyriana Kratter in early May. Production runs under the working title "Calm Current" and continues through November 27. Season after season, Vancouver endures the end of the world on behalf of HBO. The city takes it well.
Nevermore Academy may exist only on paper, but the real set is somewhere near Dublin. Season 3 of Wednesday has been rolling since February 2026, with a wrap date expected around May 22. Ireland delivers what Romania once started: gothic architecture, dramatic landscapes, and a tax incentive that pulls in major productions. Winona Ryder is joining the cast, alongside Eva Green as Ophelia, Morticia Addams' long-lost sister. Netflix even dropped a first look showing Jenna Ortega's Wednesday standing in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris — proof that Ireland isn't the only stop. Well chosen.
Paris was never going to be enough. Emily in Paris season 6 began filming on May 11, 2026, shooting across Paris, Greece, and Monaco. Netflix confirmed that production kicked off in Greece. It's the final chapter: Netflix announced this will be the show's last season. Monaco is brand new territory for the series — its casino culture and Formula 1 energy fit the show's aesthetic perfectly.
Norse forests. Snowcapped peaks. Raw, wild nature. Kratos has a new home: British Columbia. The Amazon Prime Video series, based on the hugely popular PlayStation game, filmed scenes in Greenwood Park in North Vancouver — a location transformed into the Norse realm of Midgard. Ronald D. Moore, the showrunner behind Battlestar Galactica, is leading the project. The production remains active across the Lower Mainland through May 2026.
When production moved to Milan in October 2025, filmmakers took full advantage of the city’s reputation as a global style capital. One of the most talked-about moments was filming at a Dolce & Gabbana runway show during Milan Fashion Week. In those scenes, Meryl Streep’s Miranda Priestly and Stanley Tucci’s Nigel Kipling sit front-row at the live fashion event, watching models strut down the catwalk—a scene that blends real fashion spectacle with the film’s fictional narrative.
