Feb 22 2024, 6:15 pm

UBC students might have been in for a shock when a series of armoured trucks rampaged their way through the university’s Vancouver campus.

Groups adorned in military uniforms and helmets could be seen running into the armoured vehicles carrying automatic rifles in videos taken by students.

Luckily, the scene was just that, a scene. The armoured trucks and military personnel were simply a part of the many film and TV crews that UBC is used to hosting.

According to YVR Shoots on X, it was Apple TV+ filming the latest season of Invasion. The sci-fi drama series is in its third season and revolves around characters from around the world trying to survive when an alien species invades Earth.

The filming ofĀ Invasion is another addition to UBC’s long list of film shoots, joining the likes ofĀ The Adam Project, Smallville, She’s The Man and more.
