There are two feature films and two TV series all starting up production. One film is an Indigenous supernatural mystery while the other is a remake of a 1980s slasher flick. On the TV side of things, a new futuristic Apple TV series boots up while a parallel-universe series gets into its fourth season.
Here’s the rundown of what’s going in Vancouver’s screen scene this week. Up first, the First Nations feature film Monkey Beach, starts shooting today (September 17) and continues until October 12. Filming will take place in Vancouver as well as on B.C.’s northern coast at Kitimat and Kitamaat Village.
Child’s Play gets into production today and will run until November 8. It’s a reboot of the 1980s horror-comedy franchise that revolved around a killer doll named Chucky. In the original films, Chucky was a doll possessed by the soul of a serial killer. However, in this new version, Chucky is said to be eschewing the supernatural elements in favour of a technological update as a smart toy who is reprogrammed to be murderous by a suicidal factory worker in China.
Apple TV’s See gets into production on 10 episodes for Season 1 and continues until February 8, 2019. Directed by Francis Laurence, details of this epic drama are limited but it will be set in a future in which all of humanity has gone blind. Jason Momoa, who went from Game of Thrones to dive on to the big screen as Aquaman in Justice League, will play the warrior and leader Baba Voss.
A TV series returning to town for its fourth season is The Man in the High Castle, which starts production today and runs until February 28, 2019. The Amazon series, based on the 1962 Philip K. Dick novel, is set in an alternate universe where the Axis Powers won the Second World War, and the U.S. is divided between Japan and Germany.
