While we are officially in fall, production season is still in full swing in Montreal.

In recent years, the city has become a pretty important filming location for big-time movies and TV shows in the industry.

Netflix’s Pieces of a Woman, the big-budget Tom Holland flick Chaos Walking, the X-Men franchise, John Wick, Arrival, and Mother! were all filmed across the greater Montreal area over the past few years.

While movie shooting season seems to have concluded for the year, here are a handful of TV shows being shot in Montreal right now, according to the Alliance of Canadian Cinema, Television and Radio Artists (ACTRA).

ACTRA is a Canadian labour union. Its Montreal branch represents more than 3,000 professional performers working in the English-language recorded media in Quebec.
