Despite U.S. President Donald Trump floating the idea of increasing TV and film production federal tax credits for American-made features, the industry is still thriving in Hollywood North.

The TV and film production business that, in 2024, put $3.1 billion into the provincial economy and employed more than 42,000 full-time workers, has a steady stream of projects on the books this fall.

Here are some notable productions that are up and running in B.C. (This isn’t an exhaustive list of everything shooting around the province, as it includes only productions registered with Creative B.C., the Director’s Guild of Canada B.C., and the Association of Canadian Film Crafts technical union.)

God Of War, Seasons 1 and 2

Dave Bautista took over the role of exiled Greek God Kratos when Ryan Hurst was injured in June and surgery to his bicep would mean the production would be pushed way back.

Along the way, they battle monsters and navigate complicated daddy issues.
