“At the end of the month, it was reported that, despite previous reports, neither Fox nor Harris would be starring in the film; Fox had a scheduling conflict stemming from his prior commitment to star in Alex Cross with Tyler Perry at Summit Entertainment, though he was later spotted filming scenes for World War Z in Falmouth, Cornwall.”
Movies filmed in Falmouth
Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Falmouth 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.

Fraggle Rock
1983–
“Exterior footage was that of St Anthony's Lighthouse located near Falmouth in Cornwall.” Wikipedia
Named here by Falmouth’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Falmouth, 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.

World War Z 2013
“In 2011 Paramount Pictures filmed parts of the film World War Z starring Brad Pitt in Falmouth Docks and off the coast.” Wikipedia
