‘The Detour’ Season 3 Is Tackling Gender Norms & Stereotypes Left And Right
NBC‘s new post-apocalyptic drama La Brea centers on a scattered family’s fight for survival in Los Angeles, but was the series really filmed in the iconic California city? It’s complicated.
The show follows several Angelenos after a giant sinkhole opens and swallows nearly the entire city’s population. Underneath the ground, survivors find themselves in a strange primeval world full of prehistoric-esque creatures, and are forced to chart a path forward.
The stage is set for a unique survival adventure, but where was La Brea actually filmed? Read on to get the scoop on the NBC show’s filming location.
WHERE WAS LA BREA FILMED?
La Brea shot its pilot in Los Angeles in March 2020. But starting in May, the series moved filming to Melbourne, Australia for the rest of Season 1, with the Australian city doubling as the City of Angels. Most of the indoor scenes were shot at Docklands Studio, which also served as the filming location for films like Ghost Rider and Upgrade. Other Melbourne filming locations include Coburg High School, as well as the University of Melbourne campus.
Additional filming locations include Australia’s Mount Macedon, as well as the beach town of Rye, Australia.
So, there you have it! La Brea was filmed with plenty of Aussie help.
La Brea airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET on NBC.
