Season 1 filmed across California. Season 2 went to different continents. The production’s wrap post said it all: “From South Africa to North America to Morocco, the cast and crew pushed the limits to bring book 2, True Believer, to life.” The Terminal List season 2 premieres on Prime Video on October 21, 2026 – four years after the first season, seven months of filming under the working title Kestrel.

Principal photography for War began in September 2025 at OMA X Film Studios in Enfield. By the time filming wrapped in February 2026, the production had moved through Smith Square in Westminster, the Southbank, and the corporate corridors of Canary Wharf – building the world of London's most elite legal firms from some of the city's most architecturally charged locations.
