La Brea set to return to Victoria

EXCLUSIVE: In good news for the local production sector, TV Tonight hears whispers that US fantasy series La Brea will return to Australia for its second season.

Filming is expected to resume in Victoria in late March.

The series around a sinkhole opening up in Los Angeles staged its disaster scenes in Port Melbourne with further locations in Mt Macedon, Coburg, Essendon, Melbourne University, Rye, Pascoe Vale, Kew and at Docklands Studios. This time around there should be less COVID restrictions in travel and production given the country is reopening internationally.

It has been a summer success for NBC and was recently renewed for a second season.

It is set to screen locally through 9Now.
