Watching the mystery unfold in a splendid mansion resting in a hushed neighborhood, you might ponder the location these college friends decided to have the reunion in, curious as to where filming took place.
My Killer Reunion Was Filmed in Georgia
‘My Killer Reunion’ was filmed entirely in Atlanta, Georgia, and simply titled ‘Killer Reunion’ during the course of production. Principal photography began on June 30, 2023, and was wrapped up in over three weeks by July 22 of the same year. Let us take a closer look at the location chosen to film the Lifetime movie.
Atlanta, Georgia
Located in central Georgia, Atlanta was used as the sole filming location for ‘My Killer Reunion.’ Boasting a blend of modernity and historical charm, the diverse metropolis offers a compelling setting for filming the Lifetime murder mystery movie. The city’s urban landscapes vary from its bustling downtown to its historic neighborhoods, and provide plenty of intriguing backdrops for suspenseful narratives. In the case of the Lifetime production, the team went with a secluded historic neighborhood to set the scene for a crime of passion.
Despite the continuous days of extensive filming, the cast and crew appeared to be in high spirits. The actresses shared behind-the-scenes reels on Instagram, dancing and grooving to music as they appreciated the team helping put together their wardrobe, applying makeup, and styling their hair. The camera and electrical department had their own frolics in frequent posts; seen changing lenses, orbiting the set after scenes, capturing everyone hard at work, and recording behind-the-scenes tomfoolery. After wrapping up filming, actor Britton Webb summed up his experience in a post saying, “Working with talent from near and far, if you love what you do, you never have to work a day in your life.”
While ‘My Killer Reunion’ was filmed in a particular suburban neighborhood in Atlanta, the city offers picturesque filming sites, and iconic landmarks, such as the historic Fox Theatre, the captivating BeltLine trail, a canvas of sleek skyscrapers, and preserved historical sites. Furthermore, due to its attractive tax incentives, cost-effective production facilities, robust infrastructure, diverse filming locations, and favorable climate, Atlanta stands as a go-to hub for the film industry.
Some prominent movies and shows that were drawn to the vibrant state capital to be filmed are, ‘The Haunting of Hill House,’ ‘Reptile,’ ‘Ozark,’ ‘Office Christmas Party,’ ‘Blockers,’ and ‘Pain Hustlers.’ The city has been a promising, atmospheric, and economical choice for creating Lifetime movies as well.
