Wind River: The Next Chapter will begin filming in the Calgary area this March. The new movie will be a sequel to the 2017 drama Wind River and is about a series of murders that have gone unsolved at the Wind River reservation.

Martin Sensmeier will return to his role as Chip Hanson in the second film; however, other cast members have yet to be announced. Previously Elizabeth Olsen and Jeremy Renner starred in the first instalment, but it has not been officially confirmed if they will reprise their roles in the sequel.

Filming will take place in Calgary and the surrounding areas until the end of April.

Fargo – Season 5

Fargo is in production in Alberta for its fifth season this March. Filming for the new season will be primarily in Calgary and will continue into April. The series is based on the 1996 film Fargo by the Coen brothers and follows an anthology style of filming — where the characters, storyline, and location change each season.

Season five will bring new additions like Jon Hamm, Joe Keery, David Rysdahl, Sam Spruell, Jessica Pohly, and Nick Gomez. Notable cast members from previous seasons include Billy Bob Thornton, Colin Hanks, Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Ewan McGregor, and Chris Rock.

The Thicket

The Thicket is currently filming in Alberta this month. While we don’t know a lot about the new movie, we do know that filming will be underway in Calgary until the end of March.

The feature film will be based on the novel by Joe R. Lansdale. Rumour has it that Game of Throne’s Peter Dinklage will star in The Thicket, as reported by the Calgary Herald earlier in February. However, this has not been officially confirmed.

Currently, no further details have been released, so stay tuned for future updates surrounding filming for The Thicket.
