Movies and TV series filmed in Austin

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Austin as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than the statements above, so it gets its own list, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

And 53 more, per Wikipedia:

Movies and TV series filmed elsewhere in Austin

2 productions shot at 14 places inside Austin, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Austin itself.

Named here by Austin’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Austin, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Set here

Video games that take place here. A game is filmed nowhere, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood: a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.
