The Lifetime film takes us through the extraordinary situation Maggie finds herself in, upon getting the shock of a lifetime. Her riveting journey takes place in seemingly ordinary suburban environments, prompting some to inquire about where the movie actually was actually filmed.
My Husband’s Seven Wives Shooting Locations
‘My Husband’s Seven Wives’ was filmed within the city of Acworth and around Atlanta, in the state of Georgia. Principal photography began in early May 2023 and was wrapped up in around three weeks by May 20, 2023. During its filming, the movie was tentatively titled, ‘He Had Seven Wives!.’ The crew seems to have especially enjoyed their time on set, keeping up good spirits despite multiple night shoots. “Had a great time designing the looks for this film and doing it alongside a great crew who brought their game and positive attitude every day,” wrote production designer Starla Christian in a caption of pictures she shared on her social media account. Let us venture to the shooting locations!
Acworth, Georgia
Situated in the heart of the Peach State, Acworth became the main filming location for ‘My Husband’s Seven Wives.’ The neighborhoods and streets seen in the film are actually locales of Acworth. The suburban pockets of the city feature tree-lined paths, well-kept homes, and a welcoming atmosphere that authentically mirrors the quintessential American suburb. The film crew was likely drawn to these surroundings for their ability to evoke a sense of familiarity and relatability, making them ideal backdrops for their thriller, which starkly contrasts its everyday settings with its scandalizing narrative.
This quaint city, framed by the serene landscapes of Lake Acworth and steeped in historical richness, is capable of offering a distinctive backdrop. Its well-preserved historic architecture, cobblestone roads, and vibrant Main Street are beautifully complemented by the tranquility of its surrounding wooded landscapes. Yet despite its cinematic appeal, the city is a hidden gem for the film industry, with very few prominent productions filmed here.
Atlanta, Georgia
The state capital and its surrounding areas were utilized by the filmmakers to lens a number of the movie’s sequences around them. The city’s urban bustle and quieter locales can be spotted in certain parts of the film. Known for its diverse neighborhoods and dynamic cityscape, Atlanta is a cinematic powerhouse, with a large number of Lifetime movies produced here to make use of its supportive filming infrastructure. Some of these include, ‘The Perfect In-Laws,’ ‘The Neighbors Are Watching,’ ‘Murder at the Country Club,’ and ‘Nightmare School Moms.’
