Filming on Vancouver's Commercial Drive for an upcoming Netflix feature

Voicemails for Isabelle

In the summer of 2025, Vancouver’s vibrant Commercial Drive—celebrated by Time Out as one of the world’s “coolest streets”—became a filming hotspot for the upcoming Netflix feature Voicemails for Isabelle. 

On Tuesday, July 29, the charming Havana restaurant (at 1212 Commercial Drive), known for its famous patio and Latin-inspired cocktails and dishes, served as a lively on-location set for scenes in the film directed by Leah McKendrick, starring Zoey Deutch and Nick Robinson.

Havana restaurant transformed into Chef Bastien's kitchen — the place where Jill spends her workdays. Storefronts and streets along Commercial Drive provided the exterior shots around the restaurant.

Production was seen at David Lam Park in Yaletown earlier in July. David Lam Park in the Yaletown area served as the backdrop for several outdoor scenes. Vancouver's Yaletown reads convincingly as a San Francisco neighbourhood.

As filming progressed into September 2025, the production relocated to San Francisco itself. The Palace of Fine Arts and Fisherman's Wharf both were used for several outdoor scenes.

Highlands Productions, ULC, kicked off filming on July 10 and will continue through August 26, 2025.

Where was Wicker filmed? The seaside village was built in Hungary

A fisherwoman lives on the fringes of a seaside village – unmarried, stinky, and constantly teased. One day, sick of her narrow-minded neighbours, she orders a wicker husband for herself. That is the premise. Olivia Colman plays the fisherwoman. Alexander Skarsgård plays the wicker husband. And the whole thing was filmed on medieval backlots in Hungary.
