Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Cockatoo Island as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.
- X-Men Origins: Wolverine 2009

Unbroken
2014
“The POW "Coal" scenes were all filmed at Cockatoo Island.” Wikipedia
Named here by Cockatoo Island’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Cockatoo Island, 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.

Unbroken 2014
“Part of films Unbroken and the blockbuster X-Men Origins: Wolverine were filmed there in 2008.” Wikipedia
